More Meetings Added To Study The New Canada Food Guide

 
After some pressure from the agriculture sector, the Standing Committee on Health has indicated additional meetings will be added to study Canada's New Food Guide.
 
There was concern the new Food Guide was moving in a direction that would discourage consumers from eating animal proteins and dairy.
 
Conservative Associate Agriculture Critic John Barlow says the Committee will be inviting agriculture stakeholders to participate in the study.
 
"What I've seen and heard so far, is an additional three or four meetings. They have quite an extensive list of agriculture stakeholders, industry stakeholders, and health experts who they are going to be including as a part of the study, so the witnesses that they are going to be inviting looks like a comprehensive list, and we're happy with the testimony they will be including as a part of the study."
 
Barlow says they are pleased they will be including health experts who are bringing a different perspective from the original direction of the new Canada Food Guide.
