National Farm Animal Care Council Code of Practice：業界守則，不是制定法。NFACC表示，守則的要求在大多數省份並無明文拘束力，但可作為動物受困擾的證據。省級法律的援引情形：NL採納該守則（NLR 36/12；NLR 35/12 s.15規定，守則所禁止的做法即為被禁止的做法），SK規定為適用守則（Reg 1 s.3-4），NB（Reg 2000-4 s.4(2), Sch A）和BC（B.C. Reg. 34/2019，作為普遍接受的做法）將其列為抗辯理由，NS予以接受（Act s.28(b)）。不得進行；守則稱加拿大的綿羊生產從未使用過此法。

National Farm Animal Care Council Code of Practice: an industry code, not a statute. NFACC says Code requirements are not explicitly binding in most provinces but can be evidence of distress. Referred to in provincial law: adopted in NL (NLR 36/12; NLR 35/12 s.15 makes a practice a code prohibits a prohibited one), prescribed in SK (Reg 1 s.3-4), named as a defence in NB (Reg 2000-4 s.4(2), Sch A) and BC (B.C. Reg. 34/2019, as generally accepted practice), accepted in NS (Act s.28(b)). Must not be performed; the Code says it has never been used in Canadian sheep production.
