Across the line

Diesel crosses the border, but the number does not. The Canadian side is published per litre and the American side per gallon.

Abbotsford · Canadian side278.3¢/L
West Coast · the US district next door$7.329/gal

The American figure is the EIA weekly retail survey — published as $7.329/gal this week — shown the way an American carrier reads it, with the Canadian-dollar equivalent beside it once the page loads. A gallon is not a litre, so these two lines measure the same fuel in different units and the cents will never match. What does compare is the market: a load crossing into West Coast buys its fuel on the other side of a border.

Abbotsford runs 14.0¢ above the national index — a real difference on a 500-litre fill. Work out a trip

How it is calculated

What drives Abbotsford prices

Abbotsford is a Fraser Valley centre for agriculture and trucking. The city sits on Hwy 1 near the Sumas crossing into the United States, a crossing also called Huntingdon. That position keeps fuel cheaper than Metro Vancouver. Carriers moving freight through the valley and across the border fill here rather than further west, which makes the city a natural stop on a Hwy 1 run. The farming and trucking work that anchor the local economy keep the market busy through the year.
