THIS IS NO APRIL FOOL'S JOKE! MONDAY APRIL 1ST THE PRICE OF GAS GOES UP BY 5 CENTS ! MORE OR LESS THE PRICE OF GAS WILL BE AROUND $ 1.25 PER LITRE AFTER MON'S INCREASE INCLUDING THE ONE ON THURSDAY!........Drivers in four provinces can expect to pay at least 10 cents more per litre of gasoline come April, according to a leading petroleum analyst.Dan McTeague of GasBuddy.com says that consumers in Ontario, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and New Brunswick will be handing over five cents more per litre as of April 1, when the federal government’s carbon tax kicks in. That equates to $3 more to fill up a 60-litre tank.McTeague says prices will then go up by an additional five to 10 cents a litre several days after that, as a result of seasonal price changes meant to deal with increased summertime demand. That would add another $3 to $6 to the cost of filling up a 60-litre tank.
