Remember the 70s?

Published November 19, 2008 @ 09:15 in Toronto News ~ Toronto Focus

CarWhen I was driving an '85 Ford Escort in the mid-90s, I wouldn't fill up the tank if the price exceeded 50¢ a litre. I'm not kidding. I managed to drive this way for years and years.

About six years ago, prices hit 80¢ a litre in these parts and kept rising. We hit $1 and started talking about $2. Today, I'm happy to report the price in Toronto is back in the 70s.

The 60s would be even cooler.

Not the 40's though. It would be too problematic.

(environmentally speaking...)

Actually, its too low now (environmentally speaking). Low prices spur lack of investment which will spur even higher prices in the future.
