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.

Brantford · Canadian side257.4¢/L

Central Atlantic · the US district next door$6.508/gal

The American figure is the EIA weekly retail survey — published as $6.508/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 Central Atlantic buys its fuel on the other side of a border.

Brantford runs 6.9¢ below the national index — a real difference on a 500-litre fill. Work out a trip

How it is calculated

What drives Brantford prices

Brantford sits on the Highway 403 corridor and runs on manufacturing. The city's industrial base is what drives its freight traffic and its fuel demand. It is a manufacturing centre, which means trucks move raw material in and finished goods out every day. A manufacturing town on the 403 runs on that steady industrial movement rather than on consumer demand. The corridor ties Brantford into the wider southern Ontario network, and that connection is the main thing shaping the local diesel market.
