When oil price goes up, the effects of gasoline price goes up immediately. When the oil barrel price declines, it takes forever for the gas price to go down.

Sometimes, sometimes not. Depends on when the crude was purchased, how long it takes to get to the refineries/middleman, and how long from there to the corner gas-stations. When the latest crude price goes up, sometimes the refineries and gas stations are still stuck with cheaper oil and gas they ordered a while back, and, of course, the opposite when the price drops.

The average in Montreal right now is, $1.32385 per litre ($5.01 per gallon) and this is just for regular. I just check this out and this is how much we pay in taxes for the gas here, 0.45839¢ per litre ($1.7352 per gallon). Without taxes it be like 0.86546¢ per litre ($3.276 per gallon)

Croatia?

I thought it would've been cheaper in Eastern European countries compared to Western Europe or even Scandinavian or Baltic nations. I guess there's not much difference then.
