    Default Marked Gas in Vancouver

    Is there anywhere in Vancouver where it is possible to buy marked gas on land? I know of a number of places on Vancouver Island and in the Okanagan, but I haven't found anywhere in the lower mainland. I feel like I'm getting gouged when I buy marked gas on the water, since it usually costs more than unmarked premium on land.

    The Hatzic Husky on the way out to Dewdney on the Lougheed Hwy. Corner of Sylvester Rd and Hwy 7.

    Can someone please tell me the price of the marked gas in the LML? I pay about $1.51 a liter at the Marina.... so it maybe worth it to haul the boat, or get a truck-mount gas tank...?

    Makes a difference if you are in the Translink tax area or not too. Otter Co-op is, Hatzic Husky is not. I remember being surprised that the difference is not that much. Back in the UK marked gas and diesel was considerably cheaper. I would go out of my way to run my boat on it.

    It shouldn't make a difference on where the station is located, the marked gas is exempt from the translink tax....

    True, marked gas is exempt from any road taxes or suppose to be anyway.

    here is the straight poop, apparently. Somewhere on that website is a list of all current marked gas resellers. So the carbon tax is still paid but the road tax isn't. AFAIK. Wondering if I can run my chipper on it now.

    anyone can buy it as long as it does not go into your vehicle unless you are running AG plates (farm vehicle) ,
    bring your tanks/jugs or boats and fill away,
    co-op now however rights up a handritten bill of sale stating purpose on it.
