Summary
Summary#
These are final regulations from the Canadian Turkey Marketing Agency that update the province-by-province turkey marketing limits in the Canadian Turkey Marketing Quota Regulations, 1990. They set the pounds of turkey allowed for the control period April 28, 2024 to April 26, 2025, and took effect on registration (August 16, 2024).
What it does#
- Replaces the schedule in the Canadian Turkey Marketing Quota Regulations, 1990 with a new schedule of provincial pound limits for the control period beginning April 28, 2024 and ending April 26, 2025.
- Sets the following provincial pound limits for that control period:
- Ontario: 161,994,630 pounds
- Quebec: 73,372,303 pounds
- Nova Scotia: 9,523,120 pounds
- New Brunswick: 7,585,992 pounds
- Manitoba: 29,067,492 pounds
- British Columbia: 41,411,508 pounds
- Saskatchewan: 11,349,095 pounds
- Alberta: 31,244,056 pounds
- Total: 365,548,196 pounds
- The amendment is in force as of the day it was registered (August 16, 2024).
Who's affected#
- Turkey producers who receive market allotments from provincial marketing agencies.
- Provincial turkey marketing organizations and the Canadian Turkey Marketing Agency, which manage quotas and new allotments.
- Turkey processors, wholesalers and retailers could be indirectly affected by changes in how much product is allocated into each provincial market.
- General consumers — any direct impact on retail supply or prices is possible but not specified in the regulation.
Why it matters#
- These pound limits determine how much turkey can be allotted or issued as new allotments in each province during the control period.
- For producers, the numbers affect production planning and how much they are allowed to market.
- For processors and retailers, provincial supply levels can influence buying decisions and could affect availability or prices locally.
- The change is an administrative update to the quota schedule; the regulation itself does not explain market effects such as price changes.
