I saw gas in East Vancouver $1.58.9 per litre yesterday.
And thats for the cheapest gas.  The stuff i use for my 4 stroke outboard is a way more expensive.

Wow! 😳

I think I will write the “powers that be” and the elected officials to complain...... 👀

Ok, that wont work..... what can we do besides switch to paddles? 👹

At first I thought the high price of gas would discourage people from town to drive that far to Chilliwack to fish. Now I think the opposite is happening, that fishermen will likely go there to fill their tanks and fish as well. Just look at the gong show at lower river now. Lol.

Just curious how high would gas have to go before it affects one's fishing plans. Even $2 may not affect my activities much but if it ever gets to the $3-5 range, I might have to seriously reconsider those road trips.

Could you imagine $5 per litre gas?

Is that something like $20+ per gallon ???   

That would definitely kill my road trips.  I would stay put.

I would also just paddle my 16 foot runabout around and anchor it.  🤣

Who knows, we may just see those prices as the climate alarmists become convinced that man made global warming is real. 😜

Just paid $1.46 in Mission. I honestly think that's the highest I've paid out here
