Second, gasoline retailers may use promotions like coupons or rebates to attract customers causing effective price paid by consumer to be lower than the regulated price. Third, dealing with a situation of gasoline outage and finding its cause. Consistency of gasoline regulation and the Competition Act of Canada. Fourth, dealing with a situation of increasing gap between retail gasoline price as retail crude oil price. These and other issues are detailed in the book.
