Chapter 13 explains in details the basic labelling requirements for Maple Products subject to the Maple Products Regulations (MPR) under the Canada Agricultural Products Act (CAPA). This Act and the Regulations apply to companies or individuals who engage in interprovincial trade, imports or exports of maple products subject to these regulations.
Maple products covered by the MPR and this chapter are maple syrup and maple products other than maple syrup (for example: maple sugar, soft maple sugar, maple butter and maple taffy) obtained exclusively from maple sap, with the exception of substitutes. However, section 13.13 of this chapter gives some information about the labelling of maple product substitutes. The labelling of other products containing maple products but not exclusively made with maple products are not covered in this chapter. They are covered by the other chapters of the guide, because, as mentioned above, they are not subject to the MPR.
The requirements described in this chapter are applicable to most maple syrup shipments, with some exceptions. Such exceptions include maple syrup shipments that do not exceed 100 L and maple products (other than maple syrup) shipments that do not exceed 25 kg. Other exemptions are defined under sections 13.11, 13.12, 13.14, Tables 13-1 and 13-2 of this Chapter.
The federal regulations below are applicable to maple products. Specific sections of these regulations are being referenced throughout this chapter.
* These regulations are only applicable to prepackaged products for retail sale in Canada (see section 13.12.1 for more details). Note that section 15 of the CPLR requires the information on the label to be legible to the consumer under normal or customary conditions.
The provincial authorities applies the provincial regulations specific to maple and maple products, like for example, in Quebec and in Ontario. Certain references to specific sections of the provincial regulations are being inserted throughout this chapter. These references are not intended to be exhaustive and included only for guidance and convenience of the readers. To know the official and complete requirements in regard to products destined to these markets, it is recommended to contact the competent provincial authorities, such as the following:

Definitions
"Principal Display Surface (PDS )" means, in most cases, the total area or surface that is displayed or is visible under normal conditions of sale or use. This usually does not include the side(s), top, or the bottom of containers. In the case of a container that does not have a particular side for display (e.g., round can), the PDS is 40 per cent of the total surface area of the container, excluding the top and bottom. (For the complete definition, please refer to Section 2 of the CPLR.)
As the common name, net quantity, grade and colour class must be declared on the "principal display panel", its meaning is summarized as:
"Principal Display Panel (PDP)" means, in most cases, the label that is applied to the PDS and is visible under normal conditions of sale or use.
[2, 12 , 17, 19, Schedule II, MPR; B.01.001, B.01.006; 10b.ii, CPLA]
Product identity declaration consists in the designation of a product by its common or generic name or by its function. The product must bear the name “Maple Syrup”or the name of its content if it is a maple product other than maple syrup, in compliance with the definitions below. Examples of maple products other than maple syrup include: maple sugar, soft maple sugar, maple butter and maple taffy.
Definitions
"maple syrup" means the syrup obtained by the concentration of maple sap or by the dilution or solution of a maple product, other than maple sap, in potable water; (sirop d'érable) [2, MPR].
"maple product" means any product obtained exclusively by the concentration of maple sap or maple syrup, excluding any substitute; (produit de l'érable) [2, MPR].
"substitute" means any product that resembles a maple product in appearance and is prepared for the same uses as a maple product but is not obtained exclusively from maple sap; (succédané) [2, MPR].
See section 13.13 below for information about the labelling of maple syrup substitutes.
[B.01.006(1); 12 b, CPLR]
The common name must be shown on the principal display panel of the label or package.
[A.01.016; 14(1),15 CPLR]
The common name must be shown in type of at least 1.6 mm in height, based on the lower case "o".
[12(1)a, MPR; B.01.012(2); 6(2) CPLR]
The common name must appear in French and English.
[10(5), 12(1)d, 19(1) vi, MPR; 14, 15, CPLA; 22(1), 22(3), CPLR]
For maple syrup, the metric net quantity must be shown in units of volume (mL, L) as the product is a liquid. For other maple products other than maple syrup, the metric net quantity must be shown in units of weight (g, ).
Container Sizes Prescribed under the MPR
The Maple Products Regulations require that maple syrup and maple sugar be packed in standardized container sizes. When a product is subject to standardized container sizes, the net quantity declared on the label must correspond to one of the standardized sizes of the MPR, as follow:
Maple Syrup [10(3) , Schedule V.1, MPR]
250 mL or less (sizes in whole numbers)
375 mL
500 mL
540 mL (19 fl oz)
750 mL
1 L
1.5 L
Any whole number multiple of 1L
Maple Sugar [10(4), MPR]
125 g or less
250 g
375 g
500 g
750 g
1 kg
Any multiple of 1 kg
There are no standardized container sizes for other maple products. Therefore, when a product is not subject to standardized container sizes, it can be marketed in any formats.
[B.01.006(1); 4(2), CPLA; 12(a), CPLR]
The net quantity declaration must be shown on the principal display panel of the label.
[14, 15, CPLR]
The numerical quantity in the declaration of net quantity shall be shown in bold face type in letters of not less than the height indicated in the following table:
Principal Display Surface of the Packaging (PDS) | Minimum Height for Numerals and Characters in the Grade and Net Quantity | ||
---|---|---|---|
square centimetres | square inches | millimetres | inches |
≤ 32 | ≤ 5 | 1.6 | 1/16 |
> 32 to ≤ 258 | > 5 to ≤ 40 | 3.2 | 1/8 |
> 258 to ≤ 645; | > 40 to ≤ 100 | 6.4 | 1/4 |
> 645 to ≤ 2580 | > 100 to ≤ 400 | 9.5 | 3/8 |
> 2580 | > 400 | 12.7 | 1/2 |
The other net quantity information must be shown in type of at least 1.6 mm in height, based on the lower case letter "o".
[B.01.012(2); 6(2), CPLR]
The net quantity declaration must appear in French and English.
[4, 5(2), 12(1)b, Part V, Schedule 1 MPR]
[4, 5(2), 5.1, 15, 16, MPR]
The three Canadian grade names beginning with the “Canada” prefix, as established in the MPR, are the following:
Canadian Maple Syrup |
---|
Canada No. 1 Canada No. 2 Canada No. 3 |
When the above Canadian grades are being used on maple syrup, this maple syrup must be graded only:
Grader
No person other than a grader (of a CFIA registered establishment under the MPR) must grade maple syrup. As an exception, the operator or an employee of a CFIA registered establishment may grade if it is under the supervision of a grader.
Note for Quebec
Canada No. 3 Maple Syrup as described in the MPR is in violation of section 8.4.1 of the Quebec Food Regulations, that do not allow for a buddy taste in small container maple syrup.
[12(1)b, 19, Schedule I, MPR]
The use of American grades on maple syrup sold in Canada is not permitted. Imported maple syrup must meet the MPR import requirements, using the above grade names, but with their prefixes changed from “Canada” to “Grade”, as follows:
Imported Maple Syrup |
---|
Grade No. 1 Grade No. 2 Grade No. 3 |
The maple syrup container must bear a label marked with a declaration of the country of origin. Combining declarations of country of origin and grade is not permitted. For example: “Product of / Produit du Canada No. 1" is not permitted.
The “Canada” prefix grade names may be used on maple syrup that has been imported in bulk, but only after it has been graded, processed or re-packed through a registered establishment. Using the grade name beginning with the “Grade” prefix is not allowed in this case.
[12(1)b, MPR]
Designation of grade must appear on the principal display panel of the label.
[12(1)b, MPR; 14, 15, CPLR]
The height of the letters used is based on the area of the principal display surface (see the above table in 13.2.2). The grade must be shown in type of at least 1.6 mm in height, based on the lower case letter “o”.
[B.01.012(2); 6(2), CPLR]
The maple syrup grade information must appear in French and English.
[12(1)c, Schedule III, MPR]
Maple syrup with a colour class found to be Extra light, Light or Medium may be graded as "Canada No. 1", providing it meets the requirements of the "Canada No. 1" grade.
Maple syrup with a colour class found to be Amber may be graded as "Canada No. 2" providing it meets the requirements of the "Canada No. 2" grade.
Maple syrup with a colour class found to be Dark may be graded as "Canada No. 3" providing it meets the requirements of the "Canada No. 3" grade.
Note that all the above colour classes could be used in combination with the "Canada No. 3" grade for maple syrup that meets only the Canada No. 3 requirements. The method for the determination of colour class of maple syrup is outlined in Schedule III, MPR.
Colour Class | Percentage of Light Transmission |
---|---|
Extra Light | not less than 75.0 |
Light | less than 75.0 but not less than 60.5 |
Medium | less than 60.5 but not less than 44.0 |
Amber | less than 44.0 but not less than 27.0 |
Dark | less than 27.0 |
[12(1)c, MPR]
The colour designation must be printed immediately after the grade on the principal display surface of the container, example: “Canada No. 1 Medium”.
[12(2), 19, Schedule IV, MPR]
The height of the letters used is based on the area of the principal display surface (see the above table in 13.2.2). The colour must be shown in type of at least 1.6 mm in height, based on the lower case letter “o”.
[12(1)c, MPR; B.01.012(2); 6(2), CPLR]
The maple syrup colour must appear in English and French.
The name and address must be complete enough to allow consumers to communicate in writing with the responsible party. The address must include at least:
[12, MPR]
The name and address of the responsible party must be indicated as follows:
[19, MPR]
The name and address of the packer or the importer must be indicated on the label.
[B.01.005; 13, CPLR]
The name and address of the party responsible may be shown anywhere on the label, except on the bottom of the packaging.
[14, 15, CPLR]
The name and address must be shown in type of at least 1.6 mm in height, based on the lower case letter "o".
[B.01.012(2); 6(2), CPLR]
This information may be written in English or/and French.
[12, MPR]
The registration number of the registered packing establishment must be applied to the label when the name and address on the label is that of a first dealer. A registered sugar bush, packing, or maple syrup shipper establishment may or may not add its registration number to a label when its complete name and address is indicated.
The registration number can be anywhere on the label, including on the bottom of the package. It is recommended, however, that the registration number be close to the name and address of the person responsible.
[A.01.016; 15, CPLR]
The registration number must be shown in type of at least 1.6 mm in height, based on the lower case "o".
[19, (1) a) (vi) (D) and 19 b) (iii) (D), MPR]
When mandatory, the declaration of the country of origin must be a separate declaration. It cannot be part of the name and address of the foreign packer (processor). A proper declaration would be: “Product of United States”.
All country names must be written out in full, except for the United States which may be abbreviated to USA as it is recognized worldwide. Please note that United States is being used in the examples below, since Canada and the United States are the only producers of maple products worldwide, and so the majority of imported maple products are coming from the United States.
A product is “wholly manufactured in a country other than Canada” when it has not undergone any processing in Canada and its nature remains the same. Such product must carry a declaration of the country of origin, as per section 19 of the MPR.
At the time of import, the declaration of the country of origin must be "Product of USA", as per section 19 of the MPR. Then grading, packaging, and labelling an imported maple products in Canada do not change its nature. Therefore, the product remains “wholly manufactured in a country other than Canada” and the declaration of the country of origin must remains on the label. For example, this declaration can be “ Product of USA” or “Packed in Canada from products of USA”.
13.7.4.1 Canadian Maple Product, Packed in Canada
13.7.4.2 Imported Maple Syrup, Processed in Canada Into Maple Product Other Than Maple Syrup (e.g. Maple Sugar)
13.7.4.3 Imported and Canadian Maple Syrups, Blended, Graded, Packed and Labelled in Canada
In the three above situations, the declaration of the country of origin on the final product is optional. However, when the product is completely made of imported product or contains some imported product (above situations 13.7.4.2 and 13.7.4.3), this imported maple product must carry a declaration of the country of origin at the time of importation, to comply with section 19 of the MPR.
Guidelines on the Use of the Terms “Product of Canada” and ”Made in Canada” with a Qualifying Statement
A Canadian packer who wishes to declare its product as being of Canadian origin must be careful to avoid giving misleading information to consumers. Guidelines were developed to reflect consumer and industry expectations about what constitutes a Canadian product. Please refer to these guidelines to determine if the claim “Product of Canada” and “Made in Canada”, with a Qualifying Statement can be made.
The objectives of these guidelines are to promote compliance with subsection 5(1) of the Food and Drugs Act and subsection 7(1) of the Consumer Packaging and Labelling Act, by providing truthful and not misleading claims that are clear, simple and transparent. The use of these claims is voluntary. However, when applied they will be assessed based on the criteria stated in Chapter 4, section 4.19 of the Guide to Food Labelling and Advertising: www.inspection.gc.ca/english/fssa/labeti/guide/ch4ae.shtml#a4_19
13.7.4.4 Note on Maple Products Made in Quebec
Section 8.7.6 of the Quebec Regulation Respecting Food states that the indication of the source of a maple product made in Quebec must contain the word « Québec ». Furthermore, it states that the indication of origin of any other maple product must be by the inscription of the name of the of the country of origin, or in the case of a Canadian product, by an inscription containing the word « Canada » or the name of the country of origin.
It is not mandatory to find the complete wording « Produit du Québec » on the small maple product containers manufactured in Quebec, but only the word « Québec », as specified in the regulation. The word « Québec » can appear on a surface other than the principal surface. It is even acceptable to insert it as a part of the manufacturer’s adress. The abbreviations « Qc » or « Qué », however, are not acceptable.
These products cannot bear the declaration "Product of Canada", even though it was produced in Canada, because it has been packed in a foreign country. To be imported, maple products must carry a declaration of the country of origin, as per section 19 of the MPR. Canadian maple products which have been exported, packed in a foreign country and then re-imported in Canada must have the following statement on their label: "Packed in... from Canadian Maple Syrup".
[B.01.005; 13, 31(4) CPLR;]
The statement of geographic origin shall be located immediately adjacent to the declaration of the dealer identity and principal place of business. And, as indicated in section 13.5.3, the name and address of the party responsible may be shown anywhere on the label, except on the bottom of the packaging.
[14, 15, CPLR]
The country of origin must be shown in type of at least 1.6 mm in height, based on the lower case letter "o".
[B.01.012(2); 6(2), CPLR]
This information may be written in English and French.
As explained in section 13.1, maple products and maple syrup covered under the MPR are obtained exclusively by the concentration of maple sap or by the dilution or solution of a maple product, other than maple sap, in potable water. For such single ingredient foods, the common name of the product is considered to be the list of ingredients.
Nutrition labelling is now mandatory for most prepackaged products, including maple products. This is a result of amendments to the Food and Drug Regulations, that came into force on December 12, 2005. More details on these requirements can be found in Chapters 5 and 6 of this Guide.
Nutrient content claims and diet-related health claims can be made on some products. For more information on the conditions for making these claims, refer to Chapters 7 and 8 of this Guide.
Bulk containers for maple syrup are defined as containers exceeding 5 L [19 (2), MPR]. Bulk containers for maple products other than maple syrup are defined as containers exceeding 5 [19 (2), MPR].
The labelling requirements for shipping containers and bulk containers are the same as for prepackaged products, except for the exceptions described below, and in Table 13-1 [15(1), 19(2)a), MPR].
[15.2, MPR]
Interprovincial trade of maple syrup packed in a container that have a capacity of more than 5 L, that is not graded or marked in compliance with the MPR, is allowed if the product is to be repackaged or reprocessed in a registered packing establishment.
[19(2)(b), MPR]
Maple syrup packed in a container that has a capacity of more than 5 L and maple product other than maple syrup packed in a container that have a capacity of more than 5 L or 5 kg that are not marked as per the labelling and packing requirements of the MPR must be accompanied by a written authorization from the CFIA, for each shipment, prior to their entry into Canada. Please, contact your local CFIA office to know how to obtain such an authorization.
It is a recognized acceptable commercial practice to print the number and capacity of the individual prepackaged containers (ex. 12 x 540 mL), and the registration number on the shipping container, although the MPR set out the marking requirements for shipping containers in Sections 12 and 19. Other information required by the regulations is then provided by a sample on the shipping container of the label used on the individual inner prepackaged product.
Export of maple products packaged in non-standard container sizes (including bulk and shipping containers) and not marked in compliance with the Canadian regulations is allowed if:
Different sections of the Food and Drug Act & Regulations (FDA&R) and Consumer Packaging and Labelling Act & Regulations (CPLA&R) are being referenced throughout this chapter. But, as mentioned in the introduction of this chapter, it is important to remember that the FDA&R are only applicable to products sold for consumption in Canada, as defined in section 37 (1) of the FDA:
"This Act does not apply to any packaged food, drug, cosmetic or device, not manufactured for consumption in Canada and not sold for consumption in Canada, if the package is marked in distinct overprinting with the word “Export” or “Exportation” and a certificate that the package and its contents do not contravene any known requirement of the law of the country to which it is or is about to be consigned has been issued in respect of the package and its contents in prescribed form and manner" [37(1), FDA].
If in doubt about a foreign country's requirements on imported foods, it is advisable that you enquire through the importing country's department of agriculture or perhaps through their embassy/consulate/trade commission in Canada before exporting to that country.
Pure maple products are unique and must come exclusively from the concentration of the sap of maple trees (see definitions in 13.1 of this Chapter). Maple product substitutes are defined as follows in the MPR :
"substitute" means any product that resembles a maple product in appearance and is prepared for the same uses as a maple product but is not obtained exclusively from maple sap (succédané) [2, MPR]
It can be difficult for consumers to differentiate pure maple products from food products made with other types of sugar, maple flavour preparations, or a blend of maple products and other ingredients. Section 3.1 of the MPR specifies that "no person shall market a product in import, export or interprovincial trade in such a manner that it is likely to be mistaken for a maple product for which a grade or standard is established under these Regulations".
A product made from sugar, water, maple flavouring and, for example, with less than 20 % maple syrup added may not be called "Maple Syrup". Examples of common names for this product, to which the CFIA is not likely to object are: "Table syrup with x % maple syrup", "Gourmet Syrup with x % maple syrup", and “Blended Syrup with x % natural maple syrup", where x is the correct % of maple syrup actually in the product.
Note for Quebec
Those common names are not allowed in Quebec, under section 8.8.1 of the Quebec Food Regulations. Except for maple taffy, the word "maple" cannot be used in any of the names, indications, expressions, pictures or brand of any maple substitutes. However, to identify a component, the word "maple" could be listed in the ingredients list if it is not on the principal display surface.
For maple substitutes, the list of ingredients must comply with the FDR. Section 2.8 of this Guide gives information on how to declare the list of ingredients.
The list of ingredients must appear on any surface of the label, with the exception of the bottom and must appear in both English and French. The minimum type size height must be 1.6 mm, based on the lower case letter "o".
In the province of Quebec and Ontario, the provincial authorities apply general regulations on maple syrup and maple products but also on the use of the word “maple” on maple substitutes. For products destined for this market, it is recommended to contact these authorities to confirm the acceptability of the use of the word “maple” or images related to maple on products which do not fall under the authority of the Maple Product Regulations.
[18, MPR]
This chapter does not apply to a shipment of maple syrup or maple products other than maple syrup that:
Information concerning the absence or non-addition of non-permitted ingredients or chemicals is not permitted in maple products labelling or advertising. A claim pertaining to the absence or non-addition of non-permitted ingredients or chemicals infers a false uniqueness and gives an unfair advantage to the food. Such a claim infers that other similar maple products contain a non-permitted ingredient or chemical when in fact, Canadian regulations prohibit the use of these substances. Therefore, this type of claim is considered misleading under subsection 5(1) of the FDA.
Section D.03.002 of the FDR prohibits the addition of nutrients to maple syrup or maple products sold in Canada. However the product may be produced in Canada for export trade providing the requirements of section 37 (1) of the Food and Drugs Act are met (see section 13.12.1 of this chapter).
For example, if a maple product contains added vitamin C, it should clearly indicates that vitamin C is added, by modifying the common name, adding a statement and/or a list of ingredients, subject to the regulations of the receiving country.
