Ottawa Now - Canadian drivers feeling the gas price gut-punch as Iran War rages on

That’s significant when compared to the prices we saw just 2 weeks ago – when the average price was 19 cents lower. Colin Mang, an economist at McMaster University, dissects the latest round of sticker shock on today's Ottawa Now.
