Premium in Calgary is about $5 US per US gallon or about $5.70 per UK gallon so the differential to Europe is coming down. I can remember 19 cents a gallon as a kid and 19 cents a liter as an adult - its now $1.25 a liter.
The longest commutes I know of are in and out of London. My brother has some horror stories of several hour train commutes for some of his co workers. Of course that is on subsidized trains.
I have a 15 minute commute if I drive and 25 minutes on the bus. Parking downtown is about $450 a month for an above ground lot. Gas prices are not that big a concern in this town.
