      Huh, it’s apparently a Canadian thing. I didn’t even realize.

      Quite honestly, it’s not a very common term here, either. One of those things that I see in print, but never hear people say out loud.

    I go to the Petro Canada on St. Matthews semi regularly. Also native owners. Other than noticeable numbers of native employees (and being politely asked for my treaty card when I pay even though I’m white as a sheet), it just feels like a gas bar. Like one that you’d go to on highway 6 somewhere maybe.
