Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to all of you for taking time out of your busy schedules to enlighten this committee today.
To Health Canada, do you conduct ongoing evaluations of the mandatory nutrition labels that are currently in effect to determine their effectiveness? Also, how do you test their effectiveness?
As a bit of a preamble, I have to confess that I don't ever read the nutrition labels. I find it quite complicated. This is something that probably should be taught in our schools as a mandatory part of education. It should be taught to grade 3 students or below. I simply don't ever remember being taught that, and I've never used it in my life.
Given that, do you test for effectiveness, and how do you assess that effectiveness?
