Heard back from another gasoline retailer - Ultramar.

In response to me asking about finding a non-ethanol fuel for certain marine engine applications, they say:

Quote:
In Ontario provincial law requires us to sell a certain percentage of ethanol in our gasoline.

Ultramar has limited this percentage to regular gasoline only.

You can use supreme gasoline without any concerns. We do not, however, recommend that you use the mid-grade (Plus) gasoline as some stations are equipped with a system that mixes the regular and supreme to create the Plus grade of gasoline, rather than having a separate tank for the mid-grade. Therefore you could receive some ethanol in certain stations if you purchase the Plus gasoline.
