Update #2 on Gas Shortage

Just a quick update on the gas situation in Ontariario.

I heard in the last few days that the Esso refinery that suffered the fire is now back up to about 75% capacity. In other words, the supply of fuel to the province is gradually approaching more normal levels.

NB: the supply, the supply, the supply...

And of course this increase of supply came to its logical(?) conclusion yesterday when the price rose by about 4 cents/litre.

So much for the free market. Law of supply and demand. Competition? The only competition here is between anger and frustration.


Digg! diigo it
