Throughout history gas prices have been around. During this century there have been issues with the big oil companies and Canada. In 2004 gasoline prices were looked at in Canada to see if there was price competition happening between the different retail stores. The finding was that there was price fixing happening in the country. There have been many other investigations into the same matter during the 1991-2003 time periods.

During 1972 and 1991 there were many convictions on section 61, resale price maintenance. In 1986 Sunoco Inc removed one of its price supports and had to pay $100,000. In 1991 Ultramar agreed not to decrease pricing on heating oil with a competitor. In 1991 Perry Fuels agreed not to reduce its heating oil prices and threatened a price war if the competitor continued offering discounts.
