I'm aware of what's been happening with fuel, too... I'm not ignorant of how the market or business in general work.
They've already had a couple of recent increases based on rising prices. If that can be justified, fine, raise prices for fuel, not for this.
This isn't a rate hike for the sake of economics, it's a rate hike so they can have a new prestige piece. I have no problem with them building a prestige pieces... I have a problem when they're making us pay for it, though.
It's not a crown corporation operating at subsistence level pricing, it's a publicly held company, which is making a profit, which has a process for addressing rising fuel prices, which has other means of funding this than dumping it onto our backs.
