I'm looking for data on gasoline sales by volume for Ontario in 2007, either monthly or quarterly. It can be wholesale or retail, either gasoline in general or regular, unleaded. I haven't been able to come up with anything at that level of geography.
Answer
I’ve received the following response from subject matter:
“We have on the Statcan website CAMSIM table 326-0009 the average retail prices for gasoline and fuel oil, not the sales of volume, available by urban center.”
Table 326-009 – Average retail prices for gasoline and fuel oil, by urban centre Monthly (cents per litre)
