SAFE FOOD FOR CANADIANS SERVICES
As a part of ongoing food regulatory modernization initiatives, the Government of Canada has taken action to strengthen Canada's world-class food safety systems with the Safe Food for Canadians Act and Regulations.
The Safe Food for Canadians Act consolidated 14 sets of regulations, including the Organic Regulations, into one. These regulations will implement targeted improvements to the food system to overcome the risks and challenges posed by the speed, volume, and complexity of present-day food production.
The Regulations (SFCR) came into force on January 15, 2019.
The three main components of the SFCR are: licensing, traceability, and preventive controls.
