Global Affairs Canada has launched consultations on the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA) dairy tariff rate quotas (TRQs) Panel report implementation.
We want to hear from you. We welcome your ideas, your views, and your priorities through these consultations.

Why are we holding consultations on the CUSMA dairy TRQs Panel report implementation?
In December 2021, the CUSMA dairy TRQs dispute Panel delivered its final report. The Panel's report expressly recognized the legitimacy of Canada's supply management system and confirmed that Canada has the discretion to manage its TRQ allocation policies under CUSMA in a manner that supports supply management. On the sole finding against Canada regarding reserving TRQ pools exclusively for the use of processors, the Government of Canada is committed to working closely with industry and partners to reach a solution.
The feedback received will inform the decisions of the Minister of International Trade, Export Promotion, Small Business and Economic Development in implementing the CUSMA dairy TRQs dispute Panel report.
Who should participate?
The department would like to hear from all stakeholders with an interest in this matter, including:
- the Canadian public
- provincial and territorial governments
- producers, processors, further processors, distributors, retailers, importers
- national and provincial industry associations
- small and medium-sized business owners
- national, provincial, territorial and regional associations
- international trading partners
Additional information
Participants are encouraged to review the background information.
How to participate?
To participate in the consultations, interested parties are asked to review the proposed allocation and administration policy changes and provide comments to TRQConsultation.ConsultationCT@international.gc.ca, before the consultations close on April 19, 2022.
