It's Thursday, April 2nd. Welcome to the long weekend. Good morning. It's minus 1 in Newmarket Aurora. The dollar 71.87 cents U.S. gas up another two cents to $1.84. I'm Stacey Englehart. it is the last day of the work week. Tomorrow, Good Friday, a stat holiday. So what's opened and closed? Well, because tomorrow is a stat, most malls will be closed, including Vaughan Mills, Yorkdale Square One. Upper Canada Mall in New Market will be open Good Friday tomorrow, but closed Easter Sunday. Most grocery stores will also be closed both Good Friday and Easter Sunday, along with the LCBO and beer store. Government offices and banks will be closed on Friday and Easter Monday. As we've seen gas prices jump over the past month, almost 50 cents, the Conservative Party of Canada's asking Ottawa to drop the federal tax on gas and diesel for the rest of the year. Tory say their plan would save Canadians 25 cents a litre. To pay for it, they suggest cutting the Liberals' wasteful spending on the, quote, gun buyback, bureaucracy, consultants and foreign aid. And the crew of the Artemis 2 moon mission racing around the earth this morning at nearly 3,700 kilometers an hour as they prepare for their first full day in space.
