There are several difference on my Canadian Z500 versus the US models I see on YouTube, etc.  One that got my attention is that mine doesn't have the driver's storage box, which would above your left knee...  Anyone in Canada ever try to get one through CFMoto, or elsewhere?   Anybody have a part number?

That's strange...my z800 has that compartment...what year is your machine?

My BC Z force has the compartment. Maybe the dealer or someone in the shop took yours off before you took possession?

Mine's a Canadian 2020 500 Trail HO....so considered the 'base' model.  Just has the web doors, no winch, no power steering...
Poking around, the info I've seen is that it doesn't come with it. I see it mentioned in write-ups of 'features' for the 800's and up..and on the US 500's, but not on the Canadian 500's. 
I did find it in some parts breakdowns, and it's looking like a pretty pricey chink of plastic to buy through the dealer.
