Hi, I just wanted to clarify the section you wrote at Types of chocolate#Canada. I have been fact-checking, and have been unable to determine what section of the references corresponds to the statement it has referenced. Would you be able to point me to the quotes and exact section numbers from the Food and Drug Regulations page that correspond with references 11, 12, and 13? Thank you.

Hello. Sure thing:

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) is responsible for the administration and enforcement of the FDR and FDA (as it relates to food).

section 11. (3)(a) of the Canadian Food Inspection Agency Act

11. (3) The Agency is responsible for (a) the enforcement of the Food and Drugs Act as it relates to food, as defined in section 2 of that Act; http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/C-16.5/FullText.html

The use of cocoa butter substitutes in Canada is not permitted. Chocolate sold in Canada cannot contain vegetable fats or oils.

Not a quote. As per Division 4 of the Food and Drug Regulations, all chocolate products have standards of identity. The only fat permitted is cocoa butter. http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/C.R.C.%2C_c._870/page-64.html#h-65

The only sweetening agents permitted in chocolate in Canada are listed in Division 18 of the Food and Drug Regulations. Artificial sweeteners such as aspartame, sucralose, acesulfame potassium, and sugar alcohols (sorbitol, maltitol, etc.) are not permitted.

Not a quote. Division 4 of the Food and Drug Regulations state: “sweetening ingredient” means any one or any combination of sweetening agents, except for icing sugar. (ingrédient édulcorant)

A list of sweetening agents is found under Division 18 of the Food and Drugs Regulations. Artifical sweeteners are not sweetening agents in Canada as they are not found under Division 18. http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/C.R.C.%2C_c._870/page-158.html#h-113

Artificial sweeteners are food additives and are found under Table IX Food Additives That May Be Used As Sweeteners. As per Table IX, they are not permitted in chocolate. They are however permitted in unstandardized confectioneries.

Thank you for your reply; I have wikified those three links in question. Would you be able to clarify where Division 4 specifies "Products manufactured or imported into Canada that contain non-permitted ingredients (vegetable fats or oils, artificial sweeteners) cannot legally be called “chocolate” when sold in Canada. A non-standardized name such as “candy” must be used"? Regards, HMman (talk) 01:52, 17 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite

[edit]

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:09, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
