The Canadian Way

Canadian dairy farmers take great pride in producing milk the Canadian way.

Backed by proAction®, Canada's national dairy quality assurance program, farmers across the country care for their cows and the land, support our food supply, and produce 100% Canadian quality milk to some of the world’s highest standards. That’s the Canadian way.

ON-FARM EXCELLENCE

Every Canadian dairy farm follows proAction®, a mandatory national quality assurance program that sets high standards across six key areas of excellence. It includes 82 standards and practices, and 42 food safety requirements.
