From the President, John Carlson
Greetings to our members and friends across Canada
The policies and politics of the car world are in for a big change in 2025. It is a matter of record that the NAACC supports SEMA in everyway. We have been working together for over 30 years. Our main contact person for many years has been SEMA Director Colby Martin. Our NAACC membership chairman Bob Ford is in contact with Colby often.
Mike Spagnola • 2nd President and CEO of Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) President and CEO of Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) speaks out. “SEMA celebrates the re-election of Donald J. Trump as president, which promises to deliver to the nation and automotive aftermarket industry a host of important policies wins, including the prospect of tax cuts to support small businesses, a more-fair regulatory environment, and most importantly, a Day 1 end to EV mandates, which would have stifled American innovation and hindered an industry whose economic and cultural impact is integral to the American experience. We’re excited to work with a second Trump administration to advance policies and legislation that will continue to make America a more prosperous and powerful nation.”

On behalf of the Collector Car Hobby in Canada we are trying to persuade the Federal Government to allow the continued use of Ethanol free fuel. We have put forward a petition to allow the continued use of Ethanol free fuel (see below). The Federal Government has approved this petition.
All we ask is that you and or your memberships be informed and we ask that you and they please sign the following petition. (It takes less than 1 minute).
The petition is ‘live’ and ready for your signature: https://www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/Petition/Sign/e-4735
Petition to the Government of Canada
Whereas:
- Ethanol blended gasoline is destructive to older vehicles fuel systems;
- Tens of thousands of classic car owners across Canada are left with no suitable fuel to purchase;
- This government has not taken any of these issues into consideration before banning ethanol free gas from the pumps;
- Ethanol absorbs water which leads to water condensation inside fuel tanks, carburetor fuel bowls and fuel lines where air spaces are present;
- Water content in fuel will also cause swelling inside fuel filters which can restrict fuel flow;
- Ethanol erodes fibreglass tanks, rubber hoses and plastic fuel lines;
- It contributes to rust in fuel systems and will also dissolve varnish and rust in steel fuel components, which can then clog the fuel filter;
- These issues will incur serious repair costs;
- Classic cars hold a nostalgic place in our hearts and minds, and are enjoyed not only by owners, but also by the public at many summer car shows;
- Many classic car clubs also engage in a range of charities and other social and community causes and needs; and
- Collectively, owners spend millions of dollars per year in various communities, businesses and related car show activities.
We, the undersigned, residents of Canada who own classic and vintage automobiles, call upon the Government of Canada to once again make ethanol-free gasoline in a high octane grade(s) available at the gas pumps in Canada for collector car owners, plus owners of small gasoline engines and marine engines.
