On April 1, when prices were around $1.60.9, the Alberta government suspended its collection of the 13-cent per litre provincial fuel tax. On Friday, Premier Jason Kenney said he is looking into the continued high gas prices, saying it “appeared Albertans are no longer benefiting from the tax cut.”

Kenney said then he would ask the Competition Bureau of Canada to investigate potential gasoline price fixing in Alberta. He also said he directed Service Alberta to explore tools that could be used under Alberta’s Consumer Protection Act.
