Canadian Pesticide Regulation Course (CPRC)

The Canadian Pesticide Regulation Course was held October 28 - 30, 2002 and presented an overview of the Canadian pesticide regulatory process. The aim was to assist participants in the preparation of a complete and accurate pest control product submission thereby facilitating an efficient review by the PMRA.

In order to assist you in the same manner, we have provided screenshots of the overheads that were presented during the course.
