The proposed Bill C-27 was not addressing a pet food issue but would have given the agency more power on imports. There was no provision in Bill C-27, as introduced, that gave regulatory authority to the agency to control pet food. It created enabling powers for the agency that may have been used to draft regulations, but there was nothing specific on pet food.
To build on what Mr. Guimont mentioned, the agency intervened in a couple of cases with a recall of pet treats--pigs' ears, as an example--that were contaminated with salmonella. But it was strictly on the basis that these things were seen as a health hazard for humans.
