Canada's gas rates are available at the link, too. I didn't understand their units of measure - so the prices look odd $1.30 in Ontario. Perhaps by litre?

I converted CA to US dollars:
US low to high $2.70 to $4.50
CA low to high $3.59 to $4.23
 
https://www.calculateme.com/gas-price-conversion/CAD-to-USD/1.30
 
Ontario
1.30 CAD per Litre =
3.59 USD per Gallon
Exchange rate of 0.73 CAD to 1 USD as of July 11, 2025
 
British Columbia
1.53 CAD per Litre =
4.23 USD per Gallon
Exchange rate of 0.73 CAD to 1 USD as of July 16, 2025

Yes, Canada sells fuel by the litre. In my little town, the current rate is $1.479 CDN/litre.

That works out to about $3.92/USG.

I paid $2.99 at Costco in Arizona on Thursday. First time it has dropped below $3 since The Cabbage was installed. It’s taking a really long time to drop this time... during Trump 1.0, we were paying $1.75.

This list is a typical statistical mishmash that could indicate rough trends but hardly useful in real life
I can get 1 gallon of gas regular 87 octane for $4.09 in Ca. If I want the higher octanes, I pay about 40-60 cents more per gallon. How did they come up with $4.79 per gallon? By averaging different grades, different gas stations? Do they survey the same gas stations, same percentage of contribution by each grade for every survey? Info is not reflective of my experience.
IMHO

Florida price is spot on, however if your a warehouse store club member it drops into the 2.50ish range.

Also, eggs are under $3 here now. Aldi yesterday $2.72 per doz.

YEaaaah! Number one. Number one. Number one.

Hawaii does not count since they have to ship in EVERYTHING. Might as well be comparing anything to the moon.

Number One.

I live in CaCaLand, we gotta take what we can get! :)

I can’t wait to get back out of Oregon. They are so smug about their progressive values but everything is crap. The decline in the few short years I left have been appalling. Multi hundred acre homeless camps. $5 diesel. Grant graffiti everywhere. Crazy violent people roaming the streets.
