Doug Ford blasts “disgusting” overnight gas price hike in Ontario [Video]

Speaking at an event on Thursday in Oakville, Ontario, Canada, Premier Doug Ford slammed gas companies after a double-digit gas price increase across parts of Ontario and the Greater Toronto Area (GTA).

“You go out last night and you’re sitting there for 20 minutes in the lineup to get gas. It’s unacceptable,” he said adding that “Everywhere I was going it was a $1.59. You wake up this morning and it’s $1.80. It’s absolutely disgusting.”

The prices at the pumps went up by 14 cents overnight, reaching 178.9 cents/litre at most GTA stations.
