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.

Kelowna · Canadian side264.9¢/L

West Coast · the US district next door$7.394/gal

The American figure is the EIA weekly retail survey — published as $7.394/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.

Kelowna runs 0.6¢ above the national index — a real difference on a 500-litre fill. Work out a trip

How it is calculated

What drives Kelowna prices

Kelowna is the Okanagan Valley's service and distribution centre on the Hwy 97 corridor. The city handles the freight the valley generates, from the produce and goods that move through the region to the loads that get sorted for local delivery. Hwy 97 is the main artery that ties the Okanagan together, and Kelowna sits at its centre. Carriers serving the valley use the city as a base for deliveries up and down the corridor, and that central position is what makes Kelowna the valley's freight hub.
