The article was within the Gas Buddy site submission guidelines which say "Articles should be on the topics of gas prices, crude oil, clean energy, fuel efficient vehicles or related automotive articles." The oil industry article about it's production methods and environmental impacts is valid for this energy and transportation industry site. You can try to submit a story and look at the guidelines yourself. http://www.winnipeggasprices.com/Suggest-News-Article.aspx

Hi driver169, You asked what the article "Contaminated ... Fracking Zone" has to do with gasoline? I thought a gas drilling article was straightforward. The fact is more oil and gas are being extracted with hydro-fracking drilling process since the easy oil has already been extracted. Fracking gets more oil out of fields that had already drained too much for traditional drilling. The environmental impacts are also being debated - which affect the possible future risks and costs and therefore oil and gas prices. Fracking adds production costs, but gets us oil and gas we wouldn't otherwise have - and without which, we'd see even higher prices.

Have a great weekend!
