It is my understanding that Canada adopted new standards regarding
Organic certification in April 1999. According to the Organic Crop
Producers and Processors Ontario Inc., they will be granting new
'organic' status to honey producers in Southern/Central Ontario. The
rationale is that there are no beeyards in this area that can comply
with the new standards. To their knowledge there is only one beekeepers
in Canada that has been approved by this organizations affiliates and
that yard is located in very northern Alberta.
The standards are available (I believe) on OCPP's website at
www.ocpro-certcanada.com.
If anyone knows differently - I would appreciate to be informed.
