Description

Canada created “Food Day in Canada” through federal legislation. The act formally recognizes a day meant to celebrate Canadian food, farmers, cooks, and the wider food sector. It supports public awareness of Canadian food culture and local agriculture. While the day is celebratory, the law’s importance is that it makes the observance official in federal statute. It also reflects how food-related identity and industry can be recognized at the national level.
