I just checked the President's Choice broccoli in my freezer and it says "Product of Belgium".

Oh I'm specifically looking for fresh broccoli. Not frozen.

Then I don't know what you expect. You can't grow broccoli in Canada in the winter and you can't ship fresh vegetables over from halfway around the world and expect them to stay fresh.

I don't think it's crazy to expect some to come from Mexico. According to 10 minutes of Googling, Mexico produces a lot of broccoli and we get a lot of produce from Mexico already.

From my most recent grocery trip, the lettuce and limes I bought were all from mexico.
