Canada: Canada Consults on Risk Mitigation Options for US Packaged Honey Bees
On November 7, 2024, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) opened a consultation on risk mitigation options for U.S. packaged honey bees as part of their process for updating the risk analysis for importation of U.S. packages. The completed process will determine if there are acceptable risk mitigation measures which would mitigate identified risks to an acceptable level to permit the importation of U.S. packages to Canada. Stakeholders with scientifically backed risk mitigation proposals are invited to submit feedback to CFIA. The consultation will close January 9, 2025.
