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.

Val d'Or · Canadian side295.4¢/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.

Val d'Or runs 31.1¢ above the national index — a real difference on a 500-litre fill. Work out a trip

How it is calculated

What drives Val d'Or prices

Val-d'Or is a gold mining centre in the Abitibi on the Highway 117 corridor. The market is remote and northern. Highway 117 is the main road running north from the St. Lawrence valley into the Abitibi. Gold mining drives the freight, and the long northern distance shapes every route in and out. Carriers serving the Abitibi travel far to reach this market, and the mining industry keeps loads moving once they arrive. It is a northern mining town at the end of a long highway.
