Gas up one-half cent Tuesday

OTTAWA (CP) — Gasoline
and heating oil costs will rise
Tuesday by one-half cent a
litre (2.25 cents a gallon; as a
result of an Oct. 1 increase in
domestic wellhead oil prices.

A federal decision to lift a
special consumer tax of $1.85
a barrel at midnight Monday
will offset the effects of the
$2.50-a-barrel wellhead in-
crease, which took two
months to work its way
through the system to con-
sumers,

Without the tax cut, the
increase would translate into
a retail price increase of 1.6
cents a litre (7.2 cents a
gallon).

Mines Minister Judy Erola
tabled a motion in the Com-
mons Friday confirming Ot-
tawa’ previously announced
intentions to end the special
tax.
