Double digit dividend cheques this year for fuel and propane?

My guess is 11% . Depends on your
Local coop I guess.

If your supplier could get summer diesel, would it be too early to fill the bulk tanks?

Filled with summer in Jan two years ago, was none left in Oct this year.

...so they say, I bet the mini bulk tank farms have lots of summer fuel stored in them. Unless you expect to get "fresh" product in spring...but whose to say they aren't pulling from those tank farms first anyway. If that's the case it can sit in your bulk tanks just as well, if the price is right.

January 2016, diesel was 50ish cents + GST
March 2016, was around 70

Currently mid 80’s.(Lowest since 2017)

O88, I haven't checked local prices lately. I wonder if there is any downside left, or how much if there is.

Would they let it get as low as 50ish cents again? Or would the Refineries take a page from the supply management dairy sector and throttle supply to keep prices from collapsing (or just continue to gouge consumers).

I wonder what the costs of production are for diesel and gas.

I also wonder if the carbon tax is already being factored in.

We run our storage tanks quite low this time of year to take advantage of any cheap fuel pricing opportunities. But like any marketing decisions, we never know when the absolute highs or lows have been put in.

Oh yea bucket, do you think Federated's new slogan will be "Thanks a NET 1.1 Billion".

And trump loves cheap Canadian oil buy at 10 and sell there own for 50.

USA is booming gas any where from $1.88 to $2.05
