Soaring Gas Prices or a Gas Shortage?

[minks]

Well here we go, the richest freakin province in the nation and we face, of all things... a gas shortage.

Yes one of our largest refineries is shut down because it is broken. Yes it will get fixed but it will take time.

Yesterday after work I waited 40 minutes in line at the gas station to fuel up. In a 2 km span around this gas station 2 PetroCanada stations were shut down because no gas was coming to them, they had run out.

It is really quite amazing the extent to which we depend upon Crude Oil.

That is very strange to here. It is the first that I have heard of shortages.
