Of course, the weather is nice and some restrictions have been lifted, it only makes sense that gas prices are on the rise.

During the last few weeks as Cochranite's were mostly confined to their homes the price of gas had dropped to record lows at just above 60 cents a litre.

After the Premier's announcement of the relaunch strategy to get the province moving again, the prices started going up. Most stations around town are at 79.9 cents per litre with a couple already over the 80 cent mark. 

Welcome to the beginning of summer...pandemic or not.
