By Linda Morgan

Prices expected to hit 160.9 cents per litre in most of Ontario on Sunday.

You may want to fill your gas tank sooner rather than later.

Dan McTeague, President of Canadians for Affordable Energy, tweeting out prices are expected to hit 160.9 cent per litre throughout most of the province on Sunday.

McTeague says a global oil shortage is looking more and more likely, due to OPEC falling behind production quotas.

⛽️ Price 🚨: as we’ve been saying - with OPEC not pumping as much as agreed, a global oil shortage is becoming more acute.
Sunday - look for #GasPrices to RISE 4 cents/litre to a record 160.9 cts/l for #Toronto #GTA #Ottawa #Hamilton #LdnOnt #Barrie #Windsor and most of #Ontario
