Apr 17, 2026 | Local News

There’s not much change at the pump.

The Nova Scotia Energy Board set its weekly gasoline and diesel prices overnight.


Gas is unchanged, leaving a litre of regular self-serve unleaded at $1.79.8 to $1.82.1 in the eastern mainland and Port Hawkesbury; and $1.80.6 to $1.82.9 for the remainder of Cape Breton.

Diesel is down by one cent a litre. The price for a litre of diesel ranges from $2.12.4 to $2.14.7 in the eastern mainland and Port Hawkesbury. For the rest of Cape Breton, it’s $2.13.2 to $2.15.5.

There will be another price change announcement by the Energy Board on Monday as the federal government temporarily removes the fuel excise tax until Labour Day.
