Thank you for the question, Mr. Perron.
In terms of the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, we expect that all imported and domestically produced food will meet the same regulatory and quality requirements. I understand and acknowledge what you are hearing. If there's a specific issue, we're certainly open to exploring that and understanding what that complaint is.
With respect to what we require, we expect that people importing or producing food under the oversight of the agency.... They have to have a valid licence issued by the agency. They also have to be aware of the hazards associated with the food that they are either importing or producing. They have to have controls in place to address them. This is what we call a preventative control plan.
Lastly, we expect them to also keep records to ensure traceability, so that in the case of there being an issue, we have the ability to trace.
