Globe & Mail – Loonie largely to blame for lofty gas prices in Canada amid oil drop

Yikes, short memory spans on the Loonie’s past history and value. At one point it hit 70 cents I believe and the price of oil was nowhere near it’s current price. Let’s strip out inflation here shall we. It’s all academic and cerebral.

Put the cards on the table if what you’re trying to sell is CONSERVATION & the ENVIRONMENT.

If there’s another argument, the current Loonie’s value is not the major factor. State it and be clear !

BTW – there should be a chart linking the value of the LOONIE to the price of oil for comparison purposes.

JUST IN CASE COMPUTERS ARE FORGOTTEN FOR THE CONVENIENCE OF PRICE FLUCUATIONS.

The good news, is that it’ll make everyone exercise brain cells especially the memory neurons.

So for the sake of this argument, in my opinion… this disconnect from Calgary does not hold water.
