Nanaimo Gas Cartel Strikes Again

Nanaimo Gas Prices Still Highest


How in the world the local gas retail monopoly keeps getting away with it, is one of life's mysteries. It would seem the local cartel realizes that the Nanaimo motoring public is just too timid or dense to make a fuss over what is clearly the result of having no real competition in the market place.

Come to Nanaimo and pay 11 cents more per litre than you would pay in Victoria. Does the local hospitality industry think this is really what we want to be known for? Contact your MP, your MLA, your Mayor and Council, the NEDC, Nanaimo Tourism and anyone else you think might have some clout, to see if pressure can't be brought to bear to break this gouging cartel.

Of course they might not actually be a cartel, it could be just blame dumb luck that all stations pump for the same price and there may be legitimate reasons why Nanaimo motorists consistently are paying more than other places on the Island.
