Nutritional Labelling


  • Nutrition labelling became mandatory for most prepackaged foods on December 12, 2005.
  • The Nutrition Facts table appears on food labels with a consistent look, making it easy to find and easy to read.
  • The labeling regulations, introduced in 2003, also updated the requirements of over 40 nutrient-content claims and allowed five health claims on diet-health relationships to be used on food labels or in advertisements.
  • A 5-year transition period ended in December 2021, introducing new labelling requirements to the Canadian food industry. 
  • Together, the Nutrition Facts table, the nutrition claims and the ingredient list provide Canadians with more information to make informed food choices.
