As for 7-11, I know there is a straight-up 7-11 GAS station/convenience store on Burnside/Interurban in Victoria. It isn't attached to a petro, chev, or esso.
FYI, I know the Co-ops get their gas from Shell/Columbia Fuels.

In Metro Vancouver, it's pretty safe to assume all gasoline comes from the same source... maybe a few exceptions out there, but they will be few and far between.
Here's an (albeit old) article about the refinery... so you can learn something from this thread: http://www.columbiajournal.ca/05-05/11Boycott.html

i still use chevron when i can, and will look for that gas.
2nd would be esso.
3rd petro
i tried husky/mohawk before, and my prelude stalled several times...
i tried saveongas, and well, never again.
i tried costco gas, dont like it because it uses debit, i like using the cc to gain the points.

Does anyone know what the local Costco gas is??
I'm half tempted to try it. The g/f's car seems to run fine on it... although my car seems to love the 90 octane at Mohawk/Husky, and it's at the price of 87. Everyone seems surprized when I tell them my car runs great on Mohawk/Husky.

If a 7-11 is branded Esso it gets the same gas as every other Esso same goes for the one branded Petro Canada. Also no gas station is selling year old gas. Why would a gas depot store gas for a year before they deliver it to a station.
For those people running 94 octane you are just wasting your money unless your car was tunned to run on 94 octane.
