Are you tired of feeling like the punchline in a never-ending gas price joke? Well, get ready to laugh (or cry) because it’s no April Fool’s Day prank—gas prices in Alberta are about to skyrocket faster than a lifted truck down HWY 63!
Starting next week, Alberta’s fuel tax is making a comeback like a bad ’90s fashion trend, jumping from 9 cents per litre to a whopping 13 cents. (Insert Billy Mays impression) But wait, there’s more! The federal government is joining the fun by cranking up the carbon tax, adding insult to injury with over 17 cents per litre on gas and 15 cents per cubic metre on natural gas. It’s like they’re playing a game of “Who Can Squeeze Every Last Drop of Spare Change Out of Your Pockets?”
So, what’s a savvy Albertan to do? Fill up that tank faster than you can say “gas-guzzling monster truck”! After all, in this gas price rollercoaster, we’re all just along for the (expensive) ride!
