      Note: these results are from the U.S. and do not necessarily reflect Canadian data. The paper is not limited to 鈥渃ertified organic鈥� products, but includes all events where the word 鈥渙rganic鈥� has been included in reports or press releases, etc. The study also recognizes that incidences of foodborne illness are increasing also in non-organic products. In Canada, all organic producers and processors must follow the same food safety and handling guidelines as their non-organic counterparts, in addition to meeting the Canadian organic standard. Nevertheless, in the organic sector we must remain vigilant in maintaining the highest food safety standards and continuously work toward improving practices to minimize risk.
