Kosher meat certification agencies sue CFIA over guidelines causing production slowdown and reduced access to Kosher meat in Canada.
Kosher meat certification agencies sue Canadian Food Inspection Agency over slaughter guidelines. The agencies argue the CFIA guidelines, which require abattoirs to determine if an animal is unconscious before slaughter, are causing a significant slowdown in production and reducing access to Kosher meat in Canada. The guidelines, posted in 2021, are based on requirements for animals to be stunned before slaughter, a method not allowed in Kosher practices.
