The queen bees that populate Canadian bee colonies through the season largely do not come from Canada. Canada imports approximately 260,000 to 300,000 queen bees annually from warmer regions like Hawaii, California, Chile and New Zealand because it cannot meet domestic demand. However, research shows that domestically raised queens are 25 per cent more likely to survive winter than imported ones.
