Healthy Swine and Safe Food Production in A Global Canada

摘要

In 1995 the Government of Canada consulted extensively with the agri-food industry and all levels of government on a number of options for restructuring. The valuable input coming out of these consultations contributed to the creation of the CanadianFood Inspection Agency (CFIA). In this paper, the responsibilities of CFIA to pork producers will be described. An attempt will be made to describe the changes that have occurred in food inspection and animal health nationally as well as internationallyand explain how these changes contribute to keeping the Canadian livestock industry competitive in a global market.
