LETTER: Why are gas prices in Mission so high asks reader?

‘Come on, gas retailers, just be fair’
17057546_web1_letter4

Seems like the local retailers selling gas want to take advantage of us. Why is the 18.5 cents per litre TransLink tax not taken off when I can buy gas in Maple Ridge for 155.9 and in Mission for 157.9. Also this same week (May16), Kelowna was 139.9.

I know retailing is difficult but there seems to be a coordinated effort in exploiting us. It is difficult enough for working families, with just about everything going up – taxes, services, food. Come on, gas retailers, just be fair.
