Yup greed!

One barrel of oil has something like 170L of oil -
so about (assuming $40 a barrel) so about $0.24 per liter... currently at
the pumps in Quesnel is it $0.70 for gasoline and $0.95 for Diesel - oil
at the department store here, cheap no-name crap, is about $2.00 a liter
and it is not taxed nearly as much as fuel is taxed.� Yup - we're
getting screwed!
