Chicken Marketing Levies End Date Set

Summary#

This is an order that changes the Canadian Chicken Marketing Levies Order to set a fixed end date for the levies. It says the levies stop on March 31, 2024, and the change takes effect on April 1, 2023.

What it does#

• Replaces part of the existing order so that subsection (1) “ceases to have effect” on March 31, 2024.
• States the amendment comes into force on April 1, 2023.

Who's affected#

• Chicken Farmers of Canada, the organization that implements the marketing plan referred to in the order.
• People or businesses that are subject to the Canadian Chicken Marketing Levies Order — in plain terms, those who currently pay or collect the chicken marketing levies. The rule text does not list specific payers, so exact groups are not spelled out in the notice.

Why it matters#

• It gives a clear, official end date for the current chicken marketing levies.
• That timeline matters for budgeting and planning by anyone who pays the levies or relies on levy-funded activities.
• The notice does not say what will happen after March 31, 2024, so affected parties may need to watch for further announcements.
