Anyone remember the Pacific 66 gas stations? There was one to the north of the Vagabond (now Travelodge). How about White Rose? The Shell station on Albert & Gordon was originally a White Rose. And of course, there was Texaco.
That Petro-Can would, in effect, be the same station. B/A (and Royalite) were taken over by Gulf, which was taken over by Petro-Can.

Gulf, by the way, is making a comeback in Canada. XTR has licensed the brand and is offering it to independent stations whose deals with other brands are expiring.
