Government’s enforcement approach to the new nutrition facts table

May 27, 2021

Retail Council of Canada and members who sell food met with officials from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency and Health Canada on May 26 regarding the requirements for new nutrition facts tables on food products. Special focus was placed on the two-year compliance promotion period (December 2021 to December 2023) to help ensure member compliance.

RCC has been advocating on behalf of retailers during the COVID-19 crisis to avoid discretionary labelling regulatory initiatives so that retailers in Canada can focus on recovery.
