You cannot find it via Google shopping either...
I'd love to try this stuff
The local distributor hasn't even heard of it yet. Now, perhaps Shell should have been sending emails, brochures, web links, or something. But, I get a little nervous when someone selling these products isn't motivated enough to have some desire to seek out knowledge about the latest in one's own product line, if not the entire industry as a whole.
If I were the local distributor, I'd be asking Shell why they took so long to bring an E6 lubricant to North America, not telling customers on the phone that I've never heard of such a product in the first place.

SOPUS has been a mess in the distribution arena. PPUP is the mystery oil. T6 Multi is a ghost. They need to get their act together
Maybe it's been held back because of the lack of output from SOPUS' Pearl GTL plant in Qatar?

Yeah, with free feedstock and massive throughput capability, I can see where that facility would be having output problems.
More likely, this is just SOPUS doing its usual incompetent job of distributing product.

The Pearl plant was down for quite some time and this was discussed quite often on BITOG...here's an example.

Of course, none of this explains why the local distributor has never even heard of the product. Shell didn't come out with it, and share it with BITOG members only and with confidentiality agreements, at that.

That's hard to say. Some have been harder to get than others, and some were limited geographically. But, a 5w-30 E6 lubricant is what's been lacking in their lineup. Chevron, Castrol, and Mobil all have one in North America.
It's unfortunate that the mainline Shell/Pennzoil-Quaker State distributor in this province is in the sticks. And when someone in Saskatchewan says something is in the sticks, you can be rest assured it is in the sticks.
