kevin where are you? Please enlighten us.
I have been told by my wholesalers that Ocean Nutrition is no longer available and that the Canadian Govt. will not allow it into Canada. When I contacted OC directly they blamed the Canadian Govt. I have been told a few different reasons but will not get into them on open forum. So Yes I bought what I could and am concentrating on selling out what I have left and the brands I can bring in. New Life Spectrum, ERA.

The CFIA does not allow transshipping, and now that ON's products are made in Thailand, and then shipped to the US, and distributed from there, that has created at least one of their problems. No direct route to Canada, no green light. It could be that there were ingredient issues as well, there are major differences as to what is allowed in Bangkok, and what is allowed in Canada.

FYI - the new CFIA regulations cover all pet foods being imported into Canada, not just frozen.
