Ive been able to avoid those so far, apparently I should have been at two already. Lucky for me I come in after almost everyone else leaves and no one has said anything

I lost track of how much tax per gallon we have, but it's substantial. There are so many hidden taxes, it would be shocking to know how much tax we really pay in a year.

Ours are rediculous, 11.5 cents a liter from the province, thers also a federal excise tax plus the GST which is a percentage so as the price goes up so does the tax I think its somewhere around 80 cents a gallon

The Federal gas tax is .184 and the Texas is .20, so .384 per gallon.
