That picture is from the States.
no Thank you, Shell is one of the major companies that determine the price of gas so i think i will continue to buy my gas else where and with the money i save i can purchase way more then the 50 airmiles would ever give me
Shannon… not to be rude, but it may not matter where you pump your gas… you might still be contributing to the so-called problem. Wherever you buy gas, it most likely comes from some supplier that is equally responsible in determining the price of gas.
As an example, in NB, NS, and PEI, chances are if you pump gas at practically ANY retailer, it came from the Irving Oil refinery. Many people (for some reason) have a hate-on for Irving, and blindly go to ANY other station that is NOT an Irving station thinking they are boycotting Irving fuel. They are not realizing that about 90-95% of all the fuel sold in the Maritimes comes from the Irving Oil refinery.
Esso stations, PetroCan stations, and Ultramar stations (to name a few) all buy their fuel (regionally) from the Irving refinery. It would be way too costly for them to transport it from their own refineries across the country. So even though people drive right past an Irving station to pump so-called “Esso” fuel, or “Jack’s Pump-N-Go” they’re getting Irving gas all the same.
That being said (and depending on where you live) you could be buying Shell fuel (or some other offender) even though the store front says something completely different.
Your reasoning is not to pump gas at a Shell station because the corporation contributes to the inflated price of fuel. So by your rationale, you should be boycotting not only Shell, but also Exxon/Mobil, Imperial Oil (Esso), BP, Chevron, and ConocoPhillips. — All of which have high-stakes in drilling, pumping, and extracting oil in Canada, as well as turning it into fuel.
I would suspect that wherever you are pumping your fuel (outside of Atlantic Canada anyway), it’s coming from one of those top suppliers above… all of which have the same stakes at controlling the fuel prices every bit as much as Shell.
That’s not to say you can’t skip Shell if you like and shop elsewhere — by all means, where you pump your gas is your choice — but don’t trick yourself into thinking that it’s making a big difference in who controls the price of gas.
In Ontario I have seen gasoline trucks filling up at the supplier with all different names on the truck, Esso, Shell, etc. so I can presume that they all have the same supplier form ? possible Atlantic Canada.
