A Conservative motion to cut fuel taxes further failed in the House of Commons, as diesel prices across Canada continued to hover at around $2.60. The motion was defeated on Oct. 7 with 196 “nay” and 133 “yea” votes. The Liberals, New Democrats, and Bloc Québécois voted against it.

On Sept. 2, Ottawa announced that the suspension would be extended until Jan. 31, 2027, followed by a 50 percent reduction in the regular rate from Feb. 1 to March 31, 2027, before the full rates resume April 1....

Canadian households may soon face steeper grocery and mortgage prices as a diesel and crude oil price “shock” reverberates across supply chains, according to a new report. A record spike in diesel prices is rippling through the economy, creating inflation pressure that extends well beyond a typical move in crude oil, according to an Oct. 5 report by Olivier Gervais, Scotiabank’s director of modelling and forecasting. Gervais described it as a structural product shortage rather than a standard crude oil supply issue. A key factor is the war in Iran, which has severely disrupted maritime shipping and transit through the Strait of Hormuz, creating a bottleneck for shipments of oil and refined products....
