Gas on each side of the street is $1 per litre because the station on the Sask side has to price match or no one will go there. If I fill up on the Saskatchewan side who is paying the Carbon tax and pst. Me or the gas station?
The interesting question to me then is: "Why is there a gas station on the Saskatchewan side at all?" Was it built at a time of no tax differential?
