Another rise expected at the pumps tomorrow, followed by a drop on Saturday
Some more pain at the gas pumps.
After today's five cents a litre increase, prices are expected to jump again at midnight.
Dan McTeague of Canadians for Affordable Energy say prices will go up another three cents a litre for most of Ontario, bringing the average price to just under $1.67.
This is the highest amount since November 10th.
However, McTeague is calling for a price drop on Saturday, due to a potential default in the United States.
In Niagara, prices are currently hovering around $1.55.
Fitch placed the US credit AAA rating on “Watch”

Look for a serious DROP IN GAS PRICES SATURDAY as politics there could lead to a serious and unprecedented default. https://t.co/M1nmH6oi2u
