CITYnews halifax / By Dan Ahlstrand

There was no change in the price of gasoline heading into the long weekend.

The Nova Scotia Utilities and Review Board decided to leave the minimum price for self-serve regular gasoline at 163.8 cents per litre for a second consecutive week.

There was a small increase in the price of diesel, rising by 0.7 cents to 192.6 cents per liter.

Twelve months ago, we were paying 1.64 for gasoline and 1.99 for diesel.
