Plain-language summary · AI-assisted
The active quota schedule has been updated to set the maximum number of broiler hatching eggs that can be marketed interprovincially or exported from each signatory province for the 2026 calendar year. Ontario's limit is approximately 303.8 million eggs, Quebec 247.8 million, British Columbia 140.4 million, Alberta 110.0 million, Manitoba 40.0 million, and Saskatchewan 34.0 million — all with zero export quota. A separate set of higher 2027 limits has been published as an amendment not yet in force, with Ontario rising to roughly 320.7 million and other provinces seeing proportional increases. Producers and provincial commodity boards in the six signatory provinces should ensure their production and marketing plans align with the now-current 2026 figures and monitor when the 2027 schedule takes effect.
