Canada - Changes To Import Regulations

[DougG]

I made an enquiry with Nature's Variety recently; a local pet store said they would no longer carry Nature's Variety pet food due to Canadian regulatory changes.

Sorry if this has already been covered in another thread, but this was a bit of a surprise to me to say the least.

This is the response I received from Nature's Variety tonight:

Recently Canada has changed their import laws and we are waiting for the paperwork to process. We will no longer be to able to import beef products into Canada, though based on the changes made to the regulations.

They specifically mentioned beef products but I've asked for clarification, if this also covers other products such as chicken / turkey etc.

Does anyone else have more info on the regulatory changes and what we can expect? I'd hate to start losing favourite brands of quality cat food!

EDIT: They since e-mailed me back to say it's limited to beef "at this point".
