Analysts say Imperial Oil Petro Canada and Shell Canada boosted the spread between leaded and unleaded gasoline to 2.9 cents a litre from 1.8 as world oil prices fell. Unleaded costs 0.44 cents more to produce and taxes are higher by 0.37 cents. They blame market gains and industry price wars for the broader differential.

BC Supreme Court found that in the early 1970s senior officials and ministers of the Crown, with Premier Bennett, conspired to curb Eddy Haymour development on Lake Okanagan. The province expropriated Rattlesnake Island in 1974 for 40 000 but must pay Haymour 67 700 plus 9.5 percent interest and legal costs, with the judge calling the conduct unconscionable and noting 1975 embassy incident in Beirut.
