Here's how expensive gas is predicted to be in Metro Vancouver this weekend

Metro Vancouver drivers are being warned to expect another price jump at the pumps this weekend.

Metro Vancouver drivers are being warned to expect another price jump at the pumps this weekend.

Gas price analyst Dan McTeague said Thursday Vancouver drivers could see an 11-cent increase by Saturday, with prices reaching another record-breaking high of 227.9 cents per litre.

Canadian gas-price prediction website Gas Wizard suggests that could be the highest price across Canada among major cities, though Victoria won't be far behind at 226.9.

Earlier this week, the price in Vancouver reached 222.9 and, as of Friday, a heat map on GasBuddy.com suggested the average price per litre in the Greater Vancouver area was just over 217 cents.

Since the cost of fuel first rose to more than $2 per litre in Metro Vancouver back in March, there's been little relief in sight.

Experts and B.C.'s premier have largely blamed the Russian invasion of Ukraine for a trickle-down impact leading to the surging prices.

One energy expert told CTV News earlier this month there’s another major factor at play.
