so i pulled in the gas station today
and saw a huge line up
i waited and finally my turn came
and i was shocked that they were selling 94 octane on regular price.. i filled my altima and than filled my fd
later on i realised that they were selling 94 o regular price coz from tomorrow we will be charged HST it sucks

 

Ontario SUCKS, shame on anyone who voted friggin' Liberal. I'm ready to put a price on McGuinty's head. In lucky BC the new HST does not apply to gas, home electricity, natural gas, the staple items.

 

It is ridicoulaaassss, BC got a better deal compared to us.

Yay for MacMoneyty

 

Don't be so sure about that. BC got the "carbon tax" last year on gas, and today gas is $1.168 a liter in Vancouver.

 

Happy Birthday Canada!

I love this place but the taxes can be a downer and I can see why so many people cross border shop.

 

gas price today is 104.6

 

At least gas prices haven't shot up to $1.35/L for 87 octane. The best way to save money on gas is to have a non running car like me it's cheap as can be.

 

**** ontario.

I have never felt less patriotic on canada day than I did today. blah.

 

and yet we have all these people protesting in TO......but I wonder how many came and protested about the HST...

 

and you thought Paul Martin was bad..
HST= Harper Sucks Too.

 

lol nice HST... Harpers sucks too...
What a shrewed bastard....lower like 2% on tax so we think we save alittle then in the end comes up with HST which is way worse then what we had before.....
wait till US has another war and use up all the oil maybe we will see 130 ish on 87 octane...i guess everyone has to spend an extra 300-800 a year on gas

 

lets all of us buy prius lol hahahaha

 

yep bend over boys.............our leaders are F****ing us... oh wait here is $300 a little lube for ya

 

The natives seemed to do alright by protesting the HST... they now don't have to pay HST, AND they are still getting their rebate cheque. I guess we should all have protested.

 

we need to start a revolution! hahahahaha

 

I definitely don't agree with it, but things could be a lot worse. People who aren't happy with our country haven't seen enough other places they could have been born, open your damn eyes.

 

Brutal.

I didn't get a cheque and I have to pay HST while an ethnic group doesn't pay AND still gets the money?

 

WOW! you are ignorant as hell. First of all, they are not an 'ethnic group' this is their land that we STOLE. The us and Canada are nations built upon taking what isn't theirs when it becomes convenient and necessary to do so. I don't wanna get this thread moved to the politics section of the lounge, but all I'm saying is with that statement, I have lost complete respect for you as an individual and from now on anything you say is pretty much worthless to me. k thx bai.

Second of all, the hst is a tax, get over it. Protesting isn't going to change anything. You want to know why gas is so expensive to begin with? It's called supply and demand. You (and me, and all of us!) keep on buying it, so guess what? they keep producing it...and selling it! OMG NO WAY!!!! MIND BLASTING!!! Welcome to capitalism. So if you don't want to pay for gas, don't drive, simple! Did any of you even go to school in Canada? You know the government subsidizes tuition right? Seriously, don't complain. Canada is one of the best places in the world to live, I'm a 1st gen immigrant and I wouldn't wanna be anywhere else in the world...well, maybe on a beach in Ibiza, maybe.

 

I am well aware of what happened in the past but thanks for trying to give a history lesson nobody asked for.

My issue is the simple fact that the rebate was for people who will be paying the HST. To help ease the transition/buy people out or how ever you choose to view it.

If you are not going to be paying HST, and are except then I do not feel you should be entitled to a rebate.

I guess that makes me ignorant.

 

Not trying to start any more here Mikal, but I'd say nearly all modern civilizations are based on war, conquering and oppression. Ours may have been one of the most recent developments, but we are far from unique.

 

I think we should all band together and blame Britain. They started it all... them and the French.

 

All I'm saying is that HST isn't going to kill anyones wallet, trust. Gas is expensive because they want us to believe we need it, and we buy into that belief. You don't NEED to drive. trust.

 

Trust?? as in the old GReddy intercoolers?

Guys, as gay as it is, stressing over it isn't going to change anything. Cover your eyes, tell yourself its okay and be done with it. Stress takes more years off peoples' lives then smoking...

Who wants a beer?

 

see thats what is wrong wid us canadians .. everytime something comes our way.. we bend over and take it!!!! we dont give a shyt wats going on
later on we cry .. oh that happened !!! this happened
well obviously.. if u gonna sit home and do nothinh about it... they will make a move .. HST is only good as shyt!!!! people who say that its not gonna change our wallet situations.. probablly are jus rich!!!! so sorry rich folks .. go ahead and pay it
i am also an immigrant ... i came to canada in 05
i work hard for every dollar i earn.. and i dont want some ******* to come up wid new ideas to take moneu out of my pocket!!
wat happen to the big project of subway which was suppose to be here sooon.. that would have connected toronto with gta and other places.. well guess what mcguinty stopped the fundings... the project is still pending
i dont see a purpose of hst at all
go to buffalo buy a shirt for ten bucks and pay 50 cents for the taxes.. and now u can even get free health care...
just admit it guys this hst is not taking us anywhere.. nowhere just another way to gey money out of your pockets!!!!

and whoever said that here is $300 bucks ... he is dam right... about the lube lol
i am wiling to give them back that $100 thats what they sent me lol

 

Am i the only one who sees something positive from this? the higher the gas price gets, the less people will be able to afford to run their rx-7s, which means more of them will go on sale. And if none wants to buy them due to their gas consumption, we the rx-7 lovers will be able to get them even cheaper Yay for cheap rx-7

On a side note i'm also a 1st gen immigrate to canada, and live in quebec. My greatest joy of going to Ontario was getting gas cheaper
