I just sent off this e-mail to the Canadian Bureau of Food Safety Assessment. I felt it was the right organization to write to when asking that access to raw dairy products be allowed again in Canada.
If you want to contact them too and request that raw dairy is allowed to be sold in Canada, especially Manitoba again... their contact e-maill is:
Hi there,
I am aware that in the US they did have local access to raw dairy products but that now the US is clamping down and removing these under the premise that it is somehow "dangerous" to us... I have listened to Mike Adams of NaturalNews.com say that the reason why the Americans are no longer allowing raw dairy products has more to do with the multinational dairy conglomerates like Beatrice which is a subsidiary of global Parmalat (based in Italy). Mike Adams had said that raw dairy is more healthy for Humans because it inheritantly (naturally) contains pro-biotic substances which are good for fighting diseases whether they are man-made, like H1N1 or the general Flu, which are all created in a Lab environment.

During the mid-1970s my Dad would take us to Muy's Farm (Fort Whyte, Manitoba - his farm became suburban housing) which sold raw milk in large, heavy glass jars. I was about 9 or 10 years old at the time and I remember that we had to shake the heavy jar to mix the cream so it wouldn't settle. That milk was tasty though and didn't taste like the watery stuff we buy from Lucerne (Safeway) or Beatrice (Parmalat) today. Sometime in the 1980s
About 10 years ago I tried replacing dairy with soy products and I found that the more soy I consumed, the weaker and more lethargic I became. But once I read that 90% of Soy is GMO from Monsanto it was time to stop eating stuff with Soy in it. Soy is also has been found to be a "nutrient uptake inhibitor" and can damage our DNA which controls or influences the health of the shape of our body.
I know that there is an organic dairy company, Organic Meadow, based in British Columbia. They want to be allowed to sell organic rawa milk in Manitoba, but I cannot find it, therefore I assume that it is the CFIA and your department that is blocking the sale of this pure, wholesome, healthy milk from being sold in the province where I live. That brings up another simliar question ... Why does most of our organic foods, prepared and in raw form come mainly from British Columbia and Oregon and generally in that part of North America. I want to be able to consume food that is closer to where it is grown, to save on the cost of transport of this food which is primarily done by semi-trucks nowadays... How can we have smaller trucks (or rail cars) that transport our food within Manitoba and not rely so much on food produced so far away from us? Our economy is in transition right now and we need to keep our the cost of food affordable to all.
I would ask that Agriculture Canada, CFIA, and your department/program re-assess this in the near future and allow us citizens the choice of purchasing healthy, locally produced raw milk in Canada again.
Mr. Adams says that the cleanliness of dairy farms that sell raw milk must be of a high standard and if they detect that the milk purity has been compromised in any way, it gets dumped ... so there is no way that the milk can cause disease thru contamination of food. The recent e.Coli in hamburger meat is more risky because I believe it was put there to make people sick or even kill them. I don't trust multi-national food companies anymore. They appear to not be in Humanity's best interest.
So in summary I ask that Raw Dairy products be allowed for sale again in Canada, and that locally-based (owned) companies are allowed to sell it again and not-just global multi-nationals like Parmalat and Lucerne. We must return to a society where the source of our food is known and is closer to where we live.
