CANADIANS!! Is all milk in Canada kosher?
« on: June 14, 2011, 11:43:37 PM »
Hey guys-   for some reason I can't seem to get a straight answer about this- 
 I wanted to know if all milk in Canada is considered kosher like in the US-

                      Specifically in Quebec.

Any canadians out there?

Many people hold that the milk must have a hechsher but many hold that its not needed. The following text is from oukosher.org.  does anyone know if this applies to canada as well?


For those who consume chalav stam
(regular commercial milk without special
rabbinic supervision): Unflavored whole,
skim and low-fat milk in the refrigerated
section of one’s supermarket may be
purchased without any kosher certification in
the United States and most developed
countries.

If you rely on chalav stam You don't need a hechsher on the milk. The whole heter is based on the fact that the US Government is regulating the industry . You probably confused general products ( hersheys etc. Which have a hechsher and say OUD the hechsher is on the general ingredients and they are letting you know there isn't any hechsher on the Milk.

However the heter is  bedieved and R Moshe wrote a letter to the Toronto Community encouraging them to use Cholov Yisroel  when it became available. ( There are those that hold he held it isn't bedieved , long discussion)

On DD we hold based on the teachings of the Rebbe Reb Dan that Cholov Yisroel is almost Yaaharog Veal Yaavor. :) ok not that bad . So come on and find some kosher milk . Its very easy in todays day and age.

But to answer your question . Yes Cholov Stam applies in Canada too.
