1) RBC Visa if you are fine with Petro Canada
2) Tangerine MC for 2% cash back any gas station (up to 3 categories)
3) Get a reloadable Esso/Mobil GC from CardSwap or Ebates gift card store, they let you reload the card for around 2% cash back and you get your regular credit card points on top (e.g. Rogers WE MC = 1.75% + 2% = 3.75% cash back) but the downside is you load up in advance and have an extra card. These people sometimes have deals (e.g. 3% cash back or esso/mobil fuel discount cards)
4) RBC Cashback MC, this gives you 3c/l off with Petro like the VISA but also gives you 2% Grocery cash back (Tangerine is better since you can do the same and one more category).

Hope that helps, but I would dump (leave in the drawer) the PC financial card if they give me effectively just 1% for gas, lol.
