National Chemical Residue Monitoring Program and Chemistry Food Safety Oversight Program annual report 2020 to 2021
This report summarizes testing results from both the NCRMP and the fresh fruit and vegetable portion of the FSO Program in food samples collected between April 1, 2020 and March 31, 2021 (hereafter referred to as 2020/21). Over 95,000 tests for residues of veterinary drugs, pesticides, metals, and contaminants were performed on approximately 12,500 NCRMP and FSO monitoring samples and generated millions of results, which are summarized in Annex B of this report. This amount of sampling and testing was lower than the planned amount due to the Covid-19 global pandemic and resource constraints due to emergency response activities at the CFIA. Despite the reduction in chemical residue testing on domestic and imported food products, the CFIA has confidence in the reported results and conclusions provided in this report. The test results from samples taken as part of the NCRMP and FSO Program showed that the overwhelming majority of food on the market meets Canadian standards for chemical residues. The overall compliance rate was determined to be 96.6% which is consistent with past years.
