Pesticides and Pest Management.  
Our role is to determine if proposed pesticides can be used safely when label directions are followed and will be effective for their intended use. If there is reasonable certainty from scientific evaluation that no harm to human health, future generations or the environment will result from exposure to or use of a pesticide, its registration for use in Canada will be approved.

Once on the market, we monitor their use through a series of education, compliance and enforcement programs. Pesticides are also reviewed every fifteen years or sooner as new information is discovered and as science evolves. We also require companies to report any incident they receive about their products to us, just as we encourage you to report any incidents to these companies or through the Incident Reporting Program.
