The Canadian IDDSI Reference Group (CIRG) sent our advocacy letters to various key stakeholders across Canada, in both English and French. The letters provided information on IDDSI and requested support from stakeholders organizations to help to facilitate the implementation of IDDSI in Canada.
CIRG will meet monthly to discuss ongoing projects to help facilitate implementation of IDDSI in Canada and hopes to work with industry partners to help achieve IDDSI labeling by December of 2022. If you are interested in joining the CIRG, please contact IDDSI Canada.
