| Here in Fort St. John, BC, Canada it's $4.59 for 2L. That's $8.67 per US gallon.
Bruce from Can, I've always found that Canadian sticker prices are about double what US prices are. And then we pay 12% taxes on top of that. All coming from our after tax wages.
I don't really know the numbers, but I think our dollar cost of living must be about 3 times the cost of living in the US. I think our average wages are similar, and the Canadian and US dollars are also very similar.
I suppose we do get "free" basic health care, but we pay through the nose for it...
Just my 2 cents...

| The stores set the price, not the farmers. And stores will charge what the traffic will bear, or they will run lost leader sales to draw customers in. I understand that milk is cheaper in stores near the Canada/US border, on the US side, to lure suckers to come and pick up a bargin on one item(milk in this case) and then sell them alot of other things at more or less the same price. I also understand milk price is all over the map in the USA, depending on where you are, in this case close to the boarder and cross boarder shoppers, or far from the boarder, and selling to the local martket. The real truth is EVERTHING in CANADA cost 20% more than it dose in the USA. Bruce from Can. And still happy and proud to say so. |

| Haven"t seen imperial gallon gasoline since 1982. Milk sells in 4 liter bags or jug for $4.99. Had converted the price to reflect the US gallon being 3.78 litres. |

| Cows don't belong to a union but the dairy farmers have to buy into a sort of union and protection organization. It too suffers from human nature after time. The milk board and quota system has forgotten why they were originally formed. |

| Location----in front of computer? $4+ gallon, now that's a lot of helpful information.
I hate it when people put stuff on here that is of little use if the geographic area isn't provided.
In NE IN about $3.50/gal for 2% but it's usually on sale somewhere for closer to $2.50/gal.
Wonder what a dairy farmer gets for a gallon? Butter sure does seem cheap, is it because we're supposed to think it's bad for your health? |

| Farm price here is about $18 cwt. Milk is 8.6 lbs per gallon, roughly 12 gal in a cwt, so about $1.50 per gallon for 3.5% butterfat. Like other livestock farmers, high grain prices are devastating. Prices have been a roller coaster for decades. |

| Hi, $4.10 per two liters, home delivery in Nova Scotia. Probably, $375.00 for 2 liters in the stores. Cost twice as much from Nova Scotia as per the price in U.S. Cheers. |
