Probably a 60-80% chance the gasoline in the car was imported from the US...

Canada imports refined petroleum products, including gasoline from the United States. We've got the raw crude, but limited refinery's. Seem like its time to rethink and rebuild our energy sector.

This is likely untrue, Canada exports twice as much refined crude as it imports. Most of their domestic fuel use is drilled, and refined, in Canada, and they have been importing less as time goes on.
