Does anyone have recommendations for places to get Canadian lentils? Stores or brands to look for

The packaging for my Sitara brand brown lentils from Walmart says "Product of Canada", so maybe those? The Suraj brand ones from Loblaws say "Packaged in Canada" and "Imported for Loblaws", so I assume the "Product of Canada" ones are more Canadian than that.

OM has some. Check the country of origin they list on all products. Otherwise I think most supermarkets have them and definitely natural food stores like Community Foods in Calgary. In the bulk section it might be not clear where they are from though. I don’t trust store labels.

I rely on lentils a lot because you don't have to soak 'em before you cook 'em, and that suits my no-plan lifestyle.
