Good morning !

 

I am updating our labels for the new requirements from Health Canada and in tandem with SFCR. I tried asking my Inspector-on-site, but I haven't been able to get an answer yet. I can't find the information anywhere.

 

We're based in Quebec and we have a bilingual label. I'm trying to figure out if in the ingredient list, it has to be written one way or the other :

 

Ingrédients : ....

Ingredients : ...

 

Or it can be :

Ingrédients : ..... / Ingredients : ....

 

Basically if they both have to start on a separate line or if they one can start at the end of the other. There isn't great examples on the CFIA website...

 

Thanks in advance :)

 

Julie

H Julie

 

In case you've not seen this, it should be of help.............basically you can do 1 than the other OR you can do what you've suggested of eng/french  or french/eng then listing the ingredients in the corresponding language

Thanks Scampi !

 

I did see it, but I felt it wasn't super clear in that area. If I read it correctly, I can just put them back to back the way I had them in the second example. I'll go with that I think :)

 

Thank you !

That's also what I'm used to seeing on packaging most often...................just ensure you've covered off any Quebec only requirements for product sold within the province....there may be something additional needed
