:: Barrie Ontario man's crusade to find fairness in the Oil Industry ::

 The big oil companies once again have us by the, well they have us where they like to have us. Between a Rail Strike by CN and a refinery fire in Ontario, we in Ontario and parts elsewhere are finding pump prices precariously close to the buck a liter mark despite drops in international oil prices.

Imperial oil has closed its stations. Other stations dependent on Imperial for supply have closed up this week as well. The remaining companies have pushed up their prices at the pump as a result. One spokesperson for the major oil retailers in Ontario stated yesterday. "By raising the pump price we are serving the publics best interests during this time of shortage. Higher prices will insure the limited supplies last longer than they would if prices remained consistent"

Logic we can all benefit by. Maybe I'll overprice my listings by 40% so I don't run out of properties to offer for sale this year. 

Bob Taylor of Barrie has brokered his own crusade and wants us all to take notice and take action. You have to admire his willingness to do more than just mutter under his breath while taking it on the chin. Have a look at his web page. If only half as many Canadians as watched American Idle this week take up the challenge he puts forth on his website it would be interesting to see what could unfold. Click to view
