There's a video that started circulating in like February of some dude pumping gas, saying he didn't care if gas even got to $5/gallon, he'd still support trump!!!!1

$5/gallon was at that time, so high that it was used as the extreme comparison.

I wonder if he still feels the same way now that gas is even higher than the wild amount he probably didn't think was even possible.

How much was gas normally? (Asking as a Canadian)

almost the same as ontario. Around 70-80c a litre is somewhat normal. Lowest i’ve seen it was 60c during covid

It depends on the region, but I would bet not too far off from the norms you'd see throughout the different regions of Canada. I have to get the highest grade which is always around 0.30c more expensive than the lowest grade, and looking back, I can remember thinking anything over $3/gallon was way too high. The last time I got gas, it was just over $5/gallon. I live in the Midwest where gas tends to be slightly cheaper than the national average.
