Better origin evidence. Better food-system decisions.

MAPLE Score™ creates a consistent product-level measure of Canadian ingredient origin—designed to support clearer market signals and, as participation grows, more useful supply-chain intelligence.

THE POLICY GAP

Canada has origin rules. It does not have one clear number consumers can use to compare Canadian ingredient content across products.

MAPLE Score™ provides that number—while keeping processing location and ownership separate.

THE GOVERNMENT INVITATION

An invitation to examine the framework—not currently a request for endorsement or funding.

  • Designate a policy contact

    Identify the appropriate lead in agriculture, food policy, consumer affairs, economic development, trade or regulation.

  • Examine the framework

    Test regulatory fit, trade neutrality, producer burden, consumer understanding and verification requirements.

  • Consider a pilot role

    Participate as an observer or help shape a voluntary, evidence-led pilot within your jurisdiction.
