“Oil prices are dropping,” he told CTV News Monday. “The pressure on gas stations to drop fuel will happen Wednesday.”
At the start of May, gas was about 60c/L on the market.
The price dropped down to just 51c/L after the OPEC+ alliance extended crude oil output cuts through to 2025.
McTeague says gas stations in Regina are earning 20c/L while Saskatoon stations are seeing 17c/L on their fuel.
“The norm is 10 [cents per litre],” he added. “I would suspect we’re in for a pretty significant windfall and it is likely to be accelerated.”
According to McTeague, who is also the founder of GasWizard.ca, wholesale prices for fuel has dropped about 3.5c/L.
