Sobeys, Costco, Co-op, farmers markets (although you usually need to preorder) all sell fresh turkeys. Yes they are materially better. They are much more expensive, but I think they're well worth the extra cost.

I have an order in at Spragg's Meat Shop on McLeod. They're fresh, locally farmed and never frozen. We've gotten ours from them for the last few years. Give them a call and see if they have extras.

I would have other concerns with this article. Who keeps their fridge above 41 degrees farenheit/5 degrees celsius? In that case, you should be worried about all the food in your fridge, not just the turkey.

Yup, I'm surprised how few people do this, it really is the difference maker for a good turkey.
Also, if you have the equipment, smoke that bad boy.
I've smoked a few turkeys and just about everyone in attendance usually mentions how it's the best turkey they've ever had.
