If thats figured in US funds, that would probably be about $7 Canadian. As it is with me being disabled, and the wife now driving 60 miles a day, at $9 an hour, I dont know how we are going to make it through the winter. That and the fact that she is self employed, with no Unimployment Insurance, and is soon going to be layed off in an area with high unemployment, it aint looking good.

Things are finally hotting up here for petrol protests. The French, not ones to miss out on the chance to skive a day off work, will probably be doing the same.

Some are saying that it is a symbolic protest, just to remind the government of the 2000 protest, others are saying the whole plan will collapse.

Even so, people are panic buying.

I'm hoping for the best. It would be great to see the country come to a standstill like last time. Anything to make the government listen - not that they will, but it is nice to /try/.

Motorists are being urged not to panic-buy ahead of planned fuel tax protests, as queues of up to an hour are reported at some petrol stations.

The Fuel Lobby's Andrew Spence said no oil refinery blockades were planned so there was no need to stock up.

Sounds like I wasted nearly 10mins of my lunch break queuing for petrol <_>

I put $99 in the Suburban today. The pump stopped but it was close to full so I didn't put in another credit card. Around here gas is $2.89 and up for premium......20 cents less for regular. My Suburban clatters on regular so I get hosed for the extra.

Not bad, Dude. I figgered that your prices were more than 20 cents higher than ours.

I have to go into the jungle to get that rate :lol: If I went to Beverly Hills, super would cost $3.50-$3.75. A friend of mine saw a Supter HiTest (for sports cars) in Brentwood that topped at over $6! I aint goin there :wacko:

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
