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.

Brandon · Canadian side258.6¢/L
Rocky Mountain · the US district next door$6.422/gal

The American figure is the EIA weekly retail survey — published as $6.422/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 Rocky Mountain buys its fuel on the other side of a border.

Brandon runs 5.7¢ below the national index — a real difference on a 500-litre fill. Work out a trip

How it is calculated

What drives Brandon prices

Brandon is a western Manitoba agriculture hub on the Trans-Canada Highway, the Highway 1 corridor that carries freight across the province. A rail yard sits alongside the highway, tying the city into both road and rail freight movement. As the agriculture hub for western Manitoba, Brandon is where farm output from the surrounding country is gathered and moved out. Its spot on the main east-west route makes it a natural stop and transfer point for trucks running the Trans-Canada. Rail and highway work side by side here, keeping grain and other goods flowing through the region.
