Why fuel prices change in Canada
Fuel prices in Canada move with global Brent and WTI benchmarks, but local policy determines how quickly global changes pass through to pump rates.
Canada prices can differ sharply by province due to carbon taxes and regional refining capacity. Because fuel is part of transport and logistics cost, retail inflation often follows large petrol or diesel moves.
Current model: Province-level tax and market model. Authority: Provincial market pricing. This is why neighboring countries can post very different prices even on the same day.
