Drivers across Toronto and the GTA will finally see some relief at the pumps heading into the weekend, with gas prices expected to fall eight cents on Friday.According to Roger McKnight, chief petroleum analyst at En-Pro International, this will take gas prices to 183.9 cents per litre at most stations on May 22.The decrease follows a period of volatility driven by global supply concerns, shifts in refinery output, and fluctuating wholesale prices.Related:Gas prices drop 11 cents Friday, but sustained relief at the pumps uncertainThe drop marks the lowest price GTA motorists have seen since May 8 and 9, according to CityNews’ historical gas price data.The expected decrease on Friday follows a series of sharp increases earlier this month — including a 10‑cent jump on May 6, which pushed prices to their highest level since 2022.
