ULSD in Canada?

I haven't noticed any service stations in my area (Ottawa, Ontario) offering ULSD, has anybody else found any?

Is Canada operating under differant rules? How do you know its not ULSD? AFAIK, ULSD pumps need no special labeling as the fuel is "backwards compatible", only the low sulfer pumps need have caution labels.

I read in anouther article that I cant find anymore that LSD will not be offered in Canada for onroad use like in the U.S. So short answear is you have already been using it for a couple of months and didnt know it.

I thought the service stations were supposed to label the pumps with the type of fuel they have and so far I have only seen them labeled as Low Sulfur. Thanks for your responses
