Summary

Diesel prices are soaring to record highs across Canada—over $2.62 per litre in some cities—with ripple effects hitting everything from grocery shelves to farm equipment. Global conflicts, supply chain disruptions, and Canada’s largest refinery offline until November are fueling the crisis. Trucking costs are skyrocketing, and those expenses are passing through to consumers. While the federal government has extended a temporary diesel tax break until 2027, experts warn it won’t offset the surge—and we may be entering a new era of higher food prices for years to come.
