Whereas the purpose of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations is to ensure just and reasonable prices for specified petroleum products taking into consideration the objectives of preserving the availability of such products in rural areas, stabilizing prices of such products and minimizing the variances in prices of such products across the Province; And

whereas the average of the average of the daily high and low reported product prices (in Canadian cents) for the week ended November 9, 2011, are: Grade 1 Regular gasoline 74.3¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 83.8¢ per litre
