Gas shortages grow at Calgary stations

A number of Calgary motorists trying to fuel up found themselves running on fumes as temporary shortages continued to plague gas stations across the city Saturday.

Filling up the tank became a game of chance for many drivers.

Several stations were completely out of fuel, while others were out of certain grades of gas. Lineups plagued gas bars running at full capacity.

“I’ve never seen three cars waiting for a pump before,” said Melchor Dalvo of Chestermere, filling up in the northeast.
