New Brunswick is inching ever closer to $2-per-litre gas.
An industry source reported the Energy and Utilities Board would invoke the interrupter clause Tuesday night.
It’s expected the price of regular self-serve gas will jump six cents, bringing the maximum price to just over $1.97 a litre.
No changes are expected in the price of diesel, which currently sits at a maximum of about $2.26.
In Nova Scotia, maximum regular self-serve prices currently range from about $1.94 to $1.96 per litre while diesel is selling for between $2.18 and $2.20 per litre.
On Prince Edward Island, the maximum prices are currently $2.01 a litre for regular self-serve, more than $2.32 per litre for diesel and about $1.72 per litre for home heating oil.
The New Brunswick Energy and Utilities Board adjusts prices every Friday at 12:01 a.m.
