RIP your wallet.

Fill up your engines before the weekend, drivers! Ontario gas prices are set to rise on Saturday and one spot in the province is getting hit the hardest.

According to Dan McTeague, gas analyst and president of Canadians for Affordable Energy, prices are expected to rise by about 2 cents per litre.

Gas Wizard predicts that spots like Toronto, Brampton, Hamilton, London and Niagara will see prices sitting at 180.9 cents per litre.

However, if you live farther north, you will want to brace your wallets.

While Sudbury's gas prices aren't expected to get any higher overnight, they will still be sitting at an eye-watering 191.9 cents per litre, making them the highest in the province. Yikes.

Thunder Bay will see prices sit at 186.9 cents per litre, making them the second-highest prices across Ontario.

If you're looking for the cheapest place to fill up over the weekend, you'll want to head to Cornwall, where you can expect to see prices sitting at 173.9 cents per litre.

While these numbers may seem high, other parts of Canada currently have it worse.

You'll want to avoid driving in British Columbia if you can, as Vancouver is expected to see a 2-cent rise on Saturday, which will push gas prices up to 200.9 cents per litre.

It doesn't get much better in Victoria, with prices at the pump expected to be 198.9 cents per litre.

However, if you're heading to the Prairies, you'll feel a bit of relief as fuel prices will sit at 168.9 cents per litre in Winnipeg and 165.9 cents per litre in Regina.
