Looks like the price of gas may be on the rise.

It's been spotted around town this afternoon at 143.4.

EssenceMontreal.com says that's a hike of 9 cents a litre.

    Bought gas on Wednesday in the late afternoon at my favorite gas station,
    on Highway 132 on the South Shore for $1.28.
    Can someone explain to me what in the world has so drastically changed for
    the gas prices here to have risen approximately $0.15.
    Crude oil prices on the international market have fluctuated less than a dollar, the
    Canadian dollar has remained stable, and the last time I checked, we weren't involved in any more wars today than yesterday.

    GREED pure and simple greed...humongous profits the oil companies are making are NOT a result of increased productivity, or greater efficiency, but inflated pices

    It's time that we pick 1 outlet, my favorite being Petro Canada, since they always seem to be the first to increase prices and bouycot them for 1 month.....
    not a day, not have people not by gas on 1 perticular day of the week, but if we get our act together, have NOBODY patronize Petro Canada for a month.

    Bet prices will become more realistic.

    How do we organize.......won't even have to bang any pots and pans, won't have to do anything different other than buy your gas somewhere else for a month, if you currently buy from Petro Canada.

    What about starting TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!

    I intend to
