CFIA – FAQs about the proposed Safe Food For Canadians Regulations

Following a series of in-person sessions and webinars with stakeholders, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) website now includes answers to some of the most frequently asked questions.

You have the opportunity to submit your comments to the public consultation on the proposed Safe Food for Canadians Regulations (SFCR) by April 21, 2017.

The proposed SFCR would better protect Canadian families by putting a greater emphasis on preventing food safety risks for all foods imported into Canada or sold across provinces. The regulations would also apply to foods prepared for export.
