2022 Broiler Hatching Egg Quotas Set

Summary#

These are final regulations that update the Canadian Hatching Egg Producers Quota Regulations by setting the official 2022 limits for broiler hatching eggs. The rules were registered on January 31, 2022 and apply to the period January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022.

What it does#

• Replaces the quota schedule in the Canadian Hatching Egg Producers Quota Regulations with new 2022 limits for broiler hatching eggs.
• Sets provincial limits for interprovincial and intraprovincial trade (Column I) and sets export trade (Column II) at 0 for each listed province.
• Comes into force on the day of registration (registered January 31, 2022).

The 2022 limits (interprovincial/intraprovincial trade — Column I; export trade — Column II) are:

• Ontario: 270,912,571 (Column I), 0 (Column II)
• Quebec: 221,762,466, 0
• Manitoba: 38,668,182, 0
• British Columbia: 125,281,386, 0
• Saskatchewan: 32,869,945, 0
• Alberta: 87,486,214, 0

Who's affected#

• Broiler hatchery operators and hatching egg producers in the listed provinces are the primary groups affected.
• Provincial marketing agencies and processors that plan supply and production will notice the change.
• Exporters may be affected because the schedule shows 0 export trade allocations for all listed provinces.
• If you are not in the listed provinces or not involved in the hatching-egg supply chain, this change is unlikely to affect you.

Why it matters#

• These limits govern how many broiler hatching eggs each province can supply within Canada during 2022.
• They affect production planning, how eggs move between provinces, and the ability to export hatching eggs.
• For hatcheries and producers, the numbers determine how much they can market under the federal quota system for the year.
• The record of 0 export allocations signals that no export quota was assigned in this schedule for the listed provinces.
