Yes, i saw this too everywhere for the past 2 days.
I hope it don't jump up anymore.
i was kinda surprised that i got 250kms with half a tank. I will see what is the final km at next fill up.
If i can get 400 - 450 to a single tank. That ain't too bad
Is this the norm?

I dont know much when it comes to this.

A. That depends on where you live in Canada and where you buy your gasoline. Taxes are usually responsible for the largest component of gasoline prices. On average, Canadian taxes represent 40 to 50 per cent of what you pay at the pumps.
The federal portion consists of the excise tax, which is 10 cents per litre. In addition, the Goods and Services Tax, which is 7 per cent, is added to the total pump price, and is effectively a tax on tax. (In the Atlantic, the GST is represented as a portion of the Harmonized Sales Tax.)
The provincial tax portion varies from province to province. Provincial taxes range from 6.2 cent per litre in the Yukon to 16.5 cents in Newfoundland and Labrador. In some urban centers, such as Vancouver and Montreal, an additional transit tax is levied.

There's trouble with a number of different gas stations, not just Esso. Apparently, this supply problem is expected to be an issue for up to 3 weeks
I filled up last night and just have to have enough gas to make it to the US border Thursday morning, at which point I'll be on my way to Myrtle Beach for a week and a half
My advice would be for all those that like to run their tanks near empty before filling, ummm, think twice as more stations will run out before this gets better, I believe...
