Not sure how this can be accurate since Shell doesn't sell any gas without ethanol any more. The one caveat is I've heard that marine stations can legally sell fuel without ethanol.

From Google.
In Canada, Shell (and most major brands) generally no longer sells pure ethanol-free gasoline due to federal and provincial renewable fuel mandates requiring ethanol blends in all grades, meaning even their premium fuels like V-Power 91/93 now contain ethanol (often up to 10%). While older information suggested some premium fuels were ethanol-free, regulations changed, making it very difficult to find non-ethanol gas from major suppliers, except perhaps at some rare, independent stations or for specific uses like racing/aviation.

Who knows. They do list one station here so I will inquire if they know . It's the Co-op who do sell Top Tier . Although I realize Top Tier may also contain corn juice . At least it's keeping the Climate Alarmists happy as if it would even make a measurable difference in the big picture. And yes they will say the usual " well , you have to start somewhere, and it all adds up etc. " but at what cost ? Well , it does increase the cost of fuel as most areas of the country have to import the ethanol because they don't produce any . Not just detrimental to car engines either......
