Published by LexisNexis Canada Inc., 2011.

This is an biennial publication. The 2012 edition was released October 2011.

Description:
Food and drug legislation is a critical part of Canada's national regulatory framework. Consumers of foods, drugs, medical devices, and cosmetics look to this system to ensure that regulated products meet all health and safety standards. Thousands of professionals have a responsibility to interpret and apply the statutes and regulations in this extremely complex area of law.

Canadian Food and Drug Legislation & Commentary is a unique, "all-in-one" resource designed for biotech, pharmaceutical and health lawyers, corporate counsel and regulatory affairs consultants and personnel. It contains the full text of the Food and Drugs Act, the Consumer Packaging and Labelling Act, the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act, and the Canadian Agricultural Products Act, all pertinent regulations and a detailed listing of all relevant secondary references and websites. Chart form summaries of key elements of legislation and a comprehensive index further simplifies your research.

The commentary, prepared by Borden Ladner Gervais LLP, which has one of Canada's largest food and drugs practices, explains the legal framework and recent developments, and gives an overview of each part and division of the key legislation.
