Subject Matter Details
Legislative Proposal, Bill or Resolution, Policies or Program
- Environment - The dairy industry is interested in sustainable development, and participation in the Federal Sustainable Development Strategy (FSDS).
- International Trade - One of the main pillars for the success of supply management (on which the dairy industry in Canada is based) is import control. We have an active interest in developing global trade policies in addition to tariff and import legislation. We seek to establish and clarify federal government funding as part of market access granted under the Canadian United States Mexico (CUSMA) trade agreement and Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade agreement.
Legislative Proposal, Bill or Resolution, Regulation
- Health - As per Canada's food guide, we encourage the public to consume milk to meet the daily dairy requirements of important vitamins and minerals. Additionally, we have an outward interest in the Health of Animals Act and Regulations, with regards to Cattle Identification and Welfare. Animal welfare is both a primary concern of the dairy industry and to consumers.
