"Shell V-Power gasoline is our best gasoline containing the highest concentration of Shell Nitrogen Enriched cleaning system, designed to clean up faster than Shell Bronze gasoline and deliver optimum performance."

Yep , saw it and no problem. I go by the saying "trust but verify" so if it meets the certification requirements then it's good for me. I wouldn't think a company would embellish their product , would they ? I consider Top Tier Gasoline listings a part of the certification but don't know if it includes Canadian fuels. Enjoy the ride
PS i find that the most subjective and emotional topics on automotive web sites are Tires , Oil , Gas and MPG. Everyone seems to think theirs is the right choice. In most instances for the typical driver it doesn't matter.

Top Tier Gasoline

I agree entirely with you about the subjective and emotional nature of discussions about oil, tires, gas etc.
