There’s a sharp rise in the price of gasoline.

Gasoline jumped by 8 cents a litre. The minimum price for a litre of regular self-service unleaded is now $1.72.2 in the eastern mainland and $1.73 on Cape Breton.
Diesel is unchanged. That leaves the minimum price for a litre of diesel at $1.72.6 in the eastern mainland and $1.73.4 on Cape Breton.
