Gas and Price Regulation

Here in Manitoba (and I’m sure other places), when our local provider of natural gas wants to raise or lower prices it has to seek approval from the public utilities board.

Why shouldn’t petroleum companies have to do the same with gasoline? Do you seriously think that gasoline is not an essential utility? Try and get to work, do your grocery shopping or anything else for that matter with out burning some gas. Pretty much anything use consume has used up some gas in getting where it’s going.

Time to regulate I think.
