Résumé

No person shall establish or operate a food establishment except in accordance with this Part and the regulations. No person shall operate a food establishment, unless exempted by the Administrator, without first having obtained a permit from the Administrator. (2) An application for a permit in respect of a food establishment shall be made to the Administrator in accordance with the regulations. (3) Subject to this Part and the regulations, the Administrator shall issue a permit in respect of a food establishment to an applicant upon payment of the prescribed fee. The Administrator shall not issue or renew a permit, or may suspend or revoke a permit, in respect of a food establishment to an applicant where the Administrator is of the opinion that (a) the past conduct of the applicant or, where the applicant is a corporation, of any of its officers or directors, affords reasonable grounds to believe that the operation of the food establishment would not be carried on in accordance with this Part and the regulations; (b) the applicant does not have or will not have available all premises, facilities and equipment necessary to operate a food establishment in accordance with this Part and the regulations; (c) the applicant is not complying or will not be able to comply with this Part and the regulations; or (d) the operation of the food establishment represents or would represent a risk to human health. Any condition that is injurious to human health or, in the opinion of the Administrator, is potentially injurious to human health is deemed a risk under this Part. The Administrator may designate types or classes of food establishments for which permits are issued under Section 82. A person to whom a permit is issued shall comply with all terms and conditions of the permit. A food establishment must be constructed and maintained in such a manner that no condition exists that is injurious to human health or that, in the opinion of the Administrator, is potentially injurious to human health. Food establishment must have appropriate maintenance, cleaning and sanitation programs to control physical, chemical and microbiological contamination of food, equipment, utensils and other facilities in the food establishment. No person shall sell or offer for sale, or have in that person’s possession for the purpose of sale, any unwholesome, stale or decayed article of food, and any such article may be seized and destroyed by an inspector with the approval of a medical officer. No person who is infected with a disease or condition prescribed in the regulations or is known to be a carrier of such a disease shall participate in any way in the storage, production, manufacture, transportation, preparation, dispensing, serving, keeping for sale or sale of milk, milk products and other food, except as prescribed by the regulations. Proof that food, or a package containing food, bore (a) a name and address purporting to be the name and address of the person by whom it was produced, processed or prepared; or (b) a registered number or brand mark purporting to be the registered number or brand mark of the establishment where it was produced, processed or prepared, is prima facie proof that the food was produced, processed or prepared and that the food or package was marked by the person whose name or address appeared on the food product or package or by the person operating the food establishment whose registered number or brand mark appeared on the package, as the case may be.
