How Alberta gas prices compare to the rest of Canada right now

It’s no secret that gas prices are high, but how does Alberta compare to the rest of the country?

We looked at Gas Wizard, a fuel price forecasting site, to check out what gas prices are like across major Canadian cities.

Compared with the rest of the country, Alberta remains one of the cheapest places to fill up, particularly for regular gas.

Winnipeg had the lowest regular gas price among the cities we compared. Regular gas in Edmonton was one cent higher, while gas prices in Calgary were five cents higher than in Edmonton. Both cities were still below every major market east or west of the Prairies.

Here’s how gas prices compared across Canada as of the site’s most recent gas price forecast on Wednesday, May 27.
