Industry-Led Survey Launched Regarding Proposed Federal Livestock Traceability Regulations

In response to producer feedback and concerns about proposed amendments to Part XV (Traceability) of the Health of Animals Regulations, the Canadian Cattle Association (CCA) has launched an online traceability feedback survey to ensure that producers have an opportunity to share their feedback.

This survey is based on the proposed regulations that were anticipated. The proposed regulations are not in place, and the publication date has been paused.

The feedback collected through the survey will only be used in aggregate, and no personal information will be shared.
