NATIONAL VOICE OF THE GOAT INDUSTRY IN CANADA
Goat Traceability and ID Update
On March 17, 2023 CNGF received the following news from CFIA regarding the proposed changes to the Traceability Regulations. These changes will see the goat sector aligned with other livestock sectors in regards to Traceability and the associated requirements namely; official identification, reporting of events and movements and premises identification requirements. CNGF reviewed the proposed changes and provided feedback in the Summer of 2020 and in early 2023 signed a letter, along with the other livestock sectors in support of the proposed changes. All involved in the goat industry are invited and welcome to provide their feedback during the 90 day consultation period. CFIA will also be hosting a series of webinars for each livestock sector (in both official languages) that will be operating under the proposed regulations outlining what those changes means for each sector. The webinar for the goat sector will be held March 28th and interested individuals may sign up to attend by accessing the link below “Share your thoughts.”
