The Final Fifteen Feet of Hose: the Canadian Gasoline Industry in the Year 2000<C>Limited Distribution Publication THE FINAL FIFTEEN FEET OF HOSE The Canadian Gasoline Industry in the Year 2000 January 2001 n Canadians are well served by the current market system that determines gasoline prices. We enjoy some of the lowest gasoline prices in the world. n The rapid increase in world crude oil prices is the main culprit in rising Canadian gasoline prices. Retailers can influence often only approximately 4.5 cents of the pump price of gasoline. n The volatility and uniformity in gasoline prices is a direct HIGHLIGHTS result of the competitive nature of the business at the street level and the unique way that gasoline prices are posted on large signs outside each retail outlet across the country, as well as the volatility of crude oil prices. n Big box operators are a potential source of new compet- ition in the Canadian gasoline marketplace, especially as gasoline becomes one of many products sold at a particular retail outlet.
