Don't have the receipt with me, but we fuelled up today in Kitimat on BC's north coast and it was $1.30 per litre ($4.94 per US gallon) and then there's about 12% tax on top of that bringing it up to $5.50 Canadian per gallon.

I paid $.90. a gallon in Trinidad a year ago but heard it may be over a dollar now. Not convenient but hey I had a sailboat then - cost me almost 30 dollars to fill up. Don't want to think what it cost me now.

Deckape, thanks. If they sell mostly to fisherman that probably doesn't include sales tax, so that would make it $4.46.

That's frikkin crazy. I can go to the pump and buy it here in CA for 3.83 a US gallon for my truck.

Dyed diesel

Dyed diesel is fuel with red dye added to show there are no federal or state fuel taxes paid. Other industry names for dyed diesel are: marked fuel, farm fuel, “red dyed” diesel.
Common uses

Common uses of dyed diesel are non-highway farming equipment, construction equipment, generators, and marine vessels.

So why are you paying more? In the LA Harbor it's around 3.60 or less depending on quantity.
