A recent 34-cent hike in the price of gasoline in Churchill, Man., has residents fuming about having to pay the highest price for gasoline in North America.
Gas prices at the only gas station in town topped out at $2.31 per litre this week, though it was lowered to $2.17 by Tuesday.
A handwritten notice pointed the finger at OmniTRAX Canada, the American-owned rail company that is the town's only fuel supplier.
The president of the Canadian division for OmniTRAX, Brad Chase, said his company didn't hike prices, adding it was up to the retailer to explain. But gas station owner Dale de Meulles insisted he's only passing on what he paid for fuel.
