Natural Gas Prices going up?

The cost of natural gas is coming down, but Union Gas customers in northwestern Ontario may still an increase on their bills next month.

The cost of a cubic metre of natural gas will drop 3-cents beginning October 1st.

But the Ontario Energy Board says customers bills may go up four to seven dollars over the next year because of the price difference for natural gas paid by Union Gas over the last three months and the price it expects to pay in the next quarter.
