On July 24, a Federal Court ruled in favor of Jewish groups in Canada regarding the enforcement of kosher-meat guidelines. The court found serious issues with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency's (CFIA) new rules, questioning their reasonableness and potential encroachment on freedom of religion. The decision halts the enforcement of Ottawa's kosher slaughter rules, which had threatened the supply of kosher meat in Canada.
