Erm. Strawberries are a late Spring fruit. Why are you even considering buying those?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but is it not the beginning of Winter over in Canada? Those strawbs were either grown in an overheated hot-house, or they have been flown from Australia or New Zealand.
All that stuff costs money. And yes, oil is used to transport or heat glass-houses - So, what you are really complaining about is: oil-prices.
Those are Driscoll's strawberries and they were grown in California.
Strawberries can be planted and harvested in Oxnard, CA pretty much year round. It is one of Driscoll's main hubs in California.
Driscoll's Central Mexico hub is distributed to Arizona, Texas and Florida. I doubt they're reaching Canada.
