Canada’s Food Guide’s main strengths are its ease of use, scientific foundation, and its frequency of updates. Its weaknesses lie in the fact that simply consuming an adequate number of servings from each food group does not necessarily guarantee that an adequate amount of every nutrient will be obtained (in accordance with the DRI).
