Summary
The document refers to the regulations for testing tobacco products in Canada, under SOR/2019-64. It specifies that tests on tobacco products must be conducted by a laboratory accredited by the Canadian Standards Council or another signatory of the International Laboratory accreditation Cooperation (ILaC) Mutual Recognition arrangement, in accordance with the most recent version of the ISO/IEC 17025 standard. The laboratory must have a specific document from the accrediting body that specifies the test methods set out in the Regulations for which the laboratory is accredited. The manufacturer must include two documents with the report: the laboratory report with data used in the preparation of the report and the document proving the laboratory's accreditation at the time the test was performed. This consolidation is current to august 11, 2020, with the last amendments having come into force on March 4, 2019.
