Hi all:

Up here in Waterloo Ontario, Canada I was just quoted .579 per litre. My
understanding is that there are approx. 4 litres in an american gal, so that
would mean roughly $2.32 per gal in $Canadian, which is about $1.55 /gal
$American. I agree that you have to lean on your supplier. We use propane
for heat and hot water but push the fact that we are a pottery and therefore
have the potential for using more in the future if the price is right. I
often call to check the price and say that I will wait until the price comes
down before ordering.

Cheers
