SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application to Withdraw From Listing 
and Registration; (Gulf Canada Resources Limited, Ordinary Shares, 
Without Par Value; and Fix/Adjustable Rate Senior Preference Shares, 
Series 1, Without Par Value) File No. 1-9073

March 1, 1996.
    Gulf Canada Resources Limited (``Company'') has filed an 
application with the Securities and Exchange Commission 
(``Commission''), pursuant to Section 12(d) of the Securities Exchange 
Act of 1934 (``Act'') and rule 12d2-(d) promulgated thereunder, to 
withdraw the above specified securities (``Securities'') from listing 
and registration on the American Stock Exchange, Inc. (``Amex'').
    The reasons alleged in the application for withdrawing the 
Securities from listing and registration include the following:
    According to the Company, it has listed the Security with the New 
York Stock Exchange, Inc. (``NYSE''). In making the decision to 
withdraw the Securities from listing on the Amex, the Company 
considered the direct and indirect costs and expenses attendant on 
maintaining the dual listing of the Securities on the NYSE and on the 
Amex. The Company does not see any particular advantage in the dual 
trading of the Securities and believes that dual listing would fragment 
the market for its Securities.
    Any interested person may, on or before March 22, 1996, submit by 
letter to the Secretary of the Securities and Exchange Commission, 450 
Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549, facts bearing upon whether 
the application has been made in accordance with the rules of the 
exchanges and what terms, if any, should be imposed by the Commission 
for the protection of investors. The Commission, based on the 
information submitted to it, will issue an order granting the 
application after the date mentioned above, unless the Commission 
determines to order a hearing on the matter.

    For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation, 
pursuant to delegated authority.
Jonathan G. Katz,
Secretary.
