CDN$1 = US$0.832780
CDN$1 = UKŁ0.460552

  CDN$1.00 per litre                = UK Ł0.460 per    litre
= CDN$1.00 per 0.2199692 UK gallons = CDN$4.546 per UK gallon        = UKŁ2.0937 per UK gallon
= CDN$1.00 per 0.2641721 US gallons = CDN$3.854 per US gallon liquid = US$3.1524 per US gallon liquid

Here in Canada
    if we pay $1.00 for one litre  (of gasoline, for example)
we are paying $4.55 for one gallon (imperial)
or paying     $3.15 for one gallon (liquid, USA)

If gasoline goes up 10˘ per litre it is the same as going up 45˘ per gallon.
Anyone remember when gasoline was less than 45˘ per gallon?
Anyone remember when it was 5 gallons for a dollar?

Some people have said the Government should investigate the high price of gasoline.

But, much of the price is government taxes; taxes on a percentage basis.

The higher the price of gasoline, the more taxes the Government collects.
