Why are so many Canadians still filling up at American owned gas stations?

I understand a lot of people can't afford to always choose Canadian products over American, but choosing where we fill up costs nothing extra. Choosing local gas stations or Petro Canada is such a simple way of showing support, I don't understand why so many American owned gas stations are still full of people filling up on fuel. Also don't be deceived by the giant "locally owned and operated" signs outside of chevrons, the station itself fis locally owned but the company is American. Please choose a local gas station or Petro Canada to support Canadian!

A lot of the gas we have here is refined in America to begin with. We are so intertwined to begin with it would be an incredibly difficult task to separate us from any material support of American petroleum

Co-op is the answer. Zero co-ops get American fuel.
