............if the octane ratings in Canada are the same as those in the USA, I'd say go with 91. Of course the 94 is better but not neccessary and will offer no advantage. In USA for example only 91 is available in most places.

Unless you get your car programed to use 94.

Just wanted to mention that in this case 94 would be fine but more octane does not equal better performance unless an engine is set up for high octane fuel; going with a higher octane above 94, such as 100 octane race gas which is available in many cities for street use, can cause your car to run very poorly and overheat.
