Despite predictions to the contrary, the regulated price of gas is rising in most of the province.
Gasoline is up 3.9 cents a liter, except on the Labrador coast. Diesel fuel on the island has risen 1.3 cents, while Labrador diesel has dropped 11.6 cents a liter. Bakery oil costs more than a penny a liter more on the island, while baking oil on the island increases by the same amount. Stove oil in Labrador has dropped 23.70 cents a liter.
Meanwhile, propane has dropped just under 2 cents.
The suspension of maximum price adjustments on the Labrador coast is lifted starting today as fuel deliveries for the season resume, which means significant increases, in some cases by about a dollar per liter, for some fuels.
