Total madness by the Canadian Food Agency. At least this time it's not because of French translation issues, but I can see the Colombian cartels and Russian mobsters rubbing their hands in glee at a new emergent black market...lol.

Please tell me haribo isnt getting banned, when I enter Canada I know that I'm ok with American/ Canadian chocolate and the expensive overpriced rubbish they call cheese but I'm can't live without haribo!

I'm worried about Bisto Best. They've only just decided to allow the stuff in. Disturbing news. What about Thornton's choccies?

Maybe you could smuggle a good amount of marmite into Canada in a unsuspecting Pipe Bomb

Re: CFIA targeting UK food items.
I just do not understand this story even slightly, I can't remember the last time I went into a supermarket in Canada and they didn't have Marmite or McVitie's, and I've seen Irn-Bru plenty of times too.
So why did he want to import it all independently and why is the CFIA complaining?
I can't see the purpose of either action.
