Summary

Summary#

The Canadian Hatching Egg Producers replaced parts of the quota rules to set final provincial limits for broiler hatching eggs for 2022 and revised limits for 2023. The changes were registered on September 28, 2022 and take effect for the calendar years January 1, 2022December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2023December 31, 2023.

What it does#

  • Replaces the schedule in the Canadian Hatching Egg Producers Quota Regulations to set the final 2022 provincial limits for broiler hatching eggs.
  • Replaces the schedule setting revised provincial limits for 2023.
  • Sets the export-trade allocation column to 0 for all listed provinces (no export allocation in these schedules).
  • These changes were made under the Farm Products Agencies Act and came into force on the date of registration (September 28, 2022).

Who's affected#

  • Hatchery operators and breeders who produce broiler hatching eggs in the signatory provinces.
  • Provincial poultry marketing agencies and quota administrators.
  • The provinces listed, with their limits set as follows:

2022 limits (for interprovincial and intraprovincial trade)

  • Ontario: 274,049,774
  • Quebec: 220,309,548
  • Manitoba: 38,362,100
  • British Columbia: 123,999,730
  • Saskatchewan: 32,411,905
  • Alberta: 87,270,567
  • Export trade allocation for every province: 0

2023 revised limits (for interprovincial and intraprovincial trade)

  • Ontario: 284,481,508
  • Quebec: 228,617,837
  • Manitoba: 39,822,443
  • British Columbia: 128,720,071
  • Saskatchewan: 33,645,741
  • Alberta: 90,592,727
  • Export trade allocation for every province: 0

Why it matters#

  • These limits determine how many hatching eggs each province’s producers are allowed to market across Canada during the year.
  • That affects planning and production decisions for hatcheries and breeders, and how provincial agencies manage quotas.
  • Setting export allocations at 0 for these schedules means no export quota is provided in these specific limits.
  • The change is a routine, formal update to the quota schedules rather than a new policy consultation.
