    It's my understanding that the GVRD puts enough extra tax(es) on gas that the lower mainland prices aren't competitive no matter what.

    And are you sure there aren't any refineries? The one in Burnaby was still operating last time I was there (years ago now).

    Oh, it's there, much to the chagrin of the SJWs that protest the pipeline upgrade that don't know where their various petroleum products come from.

    Plot Twist. The Russians wore Asian masks and since that was branded racist on tik tok nobody looked any closer.

    I still don't believe that timberridge is looking forward to a go down in a hail of FBI bullets. Not blasé enough.
    It's a war of the mind and we're armed to the teeth.

    There might be more to it than I know, but from an outsider's perspective, the opposition to that pipeline was somewhat misplaced. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the pipe already there, and they just wanted to add a second pipe along the same route? And wouldn't that be a more environmentally friendly solution than running a second pipeline through some other untouched wilderness?

    I do understand the BC vs AB dynamic, but still...

    Head over to the ECRC thread. Tell them you're looking for "1203 syrup" and to send a truck to Buckhead. It'll have VT plates and the driver looks like this. It's ok for Camry's and such, just don't put that shit in the Porsche.

    That's Louis. He used to do the fuel deliveries to the Sunoco's in Londonderry and Manchester before he got busted for peeing in the tankers. He's freelancing now.

    Proper fucked. I just got back from visiting family in Greensboro and had to listen to Fox News regurgitated poorly for many hours.

    Oh, you mean the gas thing? No idea.

    Drove by 3 stations in the MRV VT and only one person was fueling up. Regular as low as $2.89 a gallon.

    This is wild. A check of gasbuddy.com shows that the only places in the city that have gas right now are Costco/Sams. This is an improvement as the Costcos were showing they had none this morning.

    Thank God for buying in bulk.

    I used to live there, I think that one was a chevron and there was an esso on the other side of burrard inlet but I believe they were all shut down and converted to terminals

    all the jet fuel for YVR comes from washington

    I don't think that's true.

    "
    The current system has access to only two sources of fuel – the Chevron refinery in Burnaby (40%) and BP’s Cherry Point refinery in Washington State (60%).

    Chevron’s supply is shipped via a pipeline between Burrard Inlet and the airport.

    In addition, Cherry Point ships fuel by barge to Westridge Terminal on Burrard Inlet. It is then shipped to YVR in the same pipeline.

    Since the late 1990s, tanker trucks from Cherry Point have been required to deliver additional fuel as YVR’s fuel needs exceeded the pipeline’s capacity, particularly during peak travel periods."

    I"m more concerned that timberidge lives in jersey than a gas shortage
    I imagine jersey to be a lot like littleton and highlands ranch but with the tang of chemicals trash and sewage in the air
