To ensure that dairy products leaving federally inspected establishments or being imported into Canada are safe, wholesome, labelled to avoid misleading consumers and are eligible to be traded interprovincially or internationally.

CFIA activities include:

• registration of manufacturing establishments;
• inspection and certification of imports, exports and product destined for interprovincial trade;
• residue testing;
• retail inspection including enforcing regulations at retail;
• policy and program development for food labelling and label verification; and
• verifying that food advertising complies with requirements
