Canada Tops Overall World Ranking of Food Safety Performance
Canada ranks first, followed by Ireland and France as the top three countries in food safety performance according to the 2014 World Ranking Food Safety Performance, a new report produced by The Conference Board of Canada’s Centre for Food in Canada in collaboration with the University of Guelph's Food Institute.
“Given that our economy is more globalized than ever, understanding other food safety regimes is critical moving forward,” according to the report co-author Dr. Sylvain Charlebois of the University of Guelph’s Food Institute. “Increasingly, more food regulators around the world will compel industry to become more accountable to consumers in order to better mitigate systemic risks.”
The report was prepared by The Conference Board of Canada’s Centre for Food in Canada in collaboration with the University of Guelph’s Food Institute.
The Conference Board of Canada will be hosting a live webinar discussing the results of this report on November 21, 2014.
