KyrosL,
This is a bit dated (2005) ... but taxes are not lower since except for the GST down to 5% from 7%
petro-canada.ca

In 2005, taxes in Canada represented on average 35% of the pump price versus 20% in the U.S. % from the website info.

I wonder how much taxing would be needed. We are pretty close to your per capita figures up here despite 75% higher taxes.

EDIT: 1.01 per litre in my neighbourhood today.
