Dan McTeague, gas analyst and president of Canadians for Affordable Energy, announced in a tweet on Tuesday that prices will rise another 2 cents by Thursday, bringing the total to a jarring 144.9 cents per litre.

McTeague also noted that the increase will set an all-time record, so if you've been procrastinating filling up your tank, you might want to do that today.

Motorists hoping to luck out and find cheaper pumps will have a hard time as affected areas include, Toronto, Ottawa, Windsor, Kingston, Sudbury, Barrie, Niagara and more.
