    Your shipping cost example doesn’t justify the varying costs of gas across the country and it far more closely is tied to gas taxes. Gas does not get more expensive just because it’s further from Alberta. Regardless of your insults. Easy enough to do a tax/price per litre comparison.

      Tax is part of the end equation along with shipping distance, cost of living, supply/demand and a few more outliers.

      Why anyone is arguing that it’s for one reason or another is just missing the point
