Mohawk Oil

Mohawk becoming the largest retailer of ethanol-blended gasolines in Western Canada before being acquired by Husky in 1998.

Husky Oil of Canada and Balaclava Enterprises of Vancouver offered $7.25 a share for Mohawk.

Mohawk’s board of directors accepted the bid and had recommended it to shareholders at which time Hugh Sutherland held 42% of the shares.

Stretching from Vancouver Island to Eastern Canada, Mohawk and Husky have over 500 stations.

In 2015, Mohawk sold off its remaining gas stations and left the oil industry altogether.
