The US still pays the lowest price for gasoline compared to the rest of the world.
You want lower gas prices ? Elect some politicians with balls to drag your country past gasoline and into alternative fuels like methanol, diesel and hybrids. The higher the demand goes, the higher the price.
Politicians here aren't the only answer to the puzzle. And neither are alternative fuels as the technology isn't 100% viable right now for a worldwide application. Look at cargo for instance. When is the last time you saw a hybrid or alternate fuel powered 18-wheeler? How about a shipping freighter that didn't burn diesel? Exactly......The world has higher demands for gasoline, including your beloved Canada. So stop your bellyaching.
