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.

Saint John · Canadian side268.4¢/L
New England · the US district next door$6.470/gal

The American figure is the EIA weekly retail survey — published as $6.470/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 New England buys its fuel on the other side of a border.

Saint John runs 4.1¢ above the national index — a real difference on a 500-litre fill. Work out a trip

How it is calculated

What drives Saint John prices

Saint John is home to the Irving Oil refinery, the largest in Canada. It also holds an Atlantic port that stays ice-free, and Hwy 1 has its terminus here. A refinery of that size and a deepwater port sit in the same city, and both anchor how the region moves fuel. Hwy 1 begins here, tying the port and the refinery to the rest of the province. Fuel moves out of this city and freight moves through it. Those are the facts that set this market apart.
