Canadian pork levy sunset date extended by one year to June 30, 2027
Canadian Pork Promotion-Research Levies Order — under the FARM PRODUCTS AGENCIES ACT
Plain-language summary · AI-assisted · not legal advice
The provision that sets the domestic pork promotion-research levy (Section 4) and the related imported pork levy (Section 12) has had its expiry date pushed back by one year, from June 30, 2026 to June 30, 2027. This means Canadian pork producers and importers of pork products subject to these levies must continue remitting them for an additional year before the rules automatically lapse. No levy rates have changed — all per-pound and per-kilogram amounts in the schedule remain the same. Businesses affected should update any compliance calendars or sunset-date assumptions they had based on the previous 2026 deadline.
