Winter Diesel

When can a person usually get winter diesel in Winipeg?

As background my snowblower at my cabin is diesel. So normally I like to have 5 - 10 gallons on hand so when I go out Christmas or Jan/Feb I have enough on hand to make the work.

Of course I can add anti gel to summer diesel but just wondering when a person can usually get normal winter diesel from WPG pumps that is relatively undiluted with summer diesel.

cheers

thanks - great info.... would you know if after Nov 1:

1) the first load of winter diesel gets pumped into te summer diesel tanks (blended?)
2) they pump out the summer diesel before adding the winter into the tanks?
3) they add anti gel to the remaining summer and dump the winter and blend?

wanting to make sure I have no gelling issues as it is a total pain in the arse getting caught with gelled fuel for us seasonal guys that go through so little of it during the winter.

To be safe I would just dump some additive with anti gel in it.. I run it in my truck and tractor all winter (and summer) then you never have to worry.
