The Canada Organic Logo is under threat again.

After over a decade of demanding permanent funding for the Canadian Organic Standards, we are seeing further cuts to the organic regime.

Governments of our major trading partners spend millions annually to support organics, while Canada cuts funding year after year.  Canada is now investing $0 into updating the standards.

Without updated standards, we lose the organic values that we rely on as well as our ability to trade with international partners on fair footing.

The standards review process only costs $1 million every five years.
