Venue Locations An outstanding feature of Hamilton’s proposed sports pro- gramme is the location of a potential eight sports venues at McMaster University, the site of the Games Village. Up to four sports will train at the University. Four of the six sports for Elite Athletes with a Disability will be held at the University. Of the 20 sports currently being consid- ered, only four are at venues outside a 20-minute driving radius of the Village.

Protecting Canadian food, fish, agricultural, plant/forest products and ensuring the safety of the agri-food industry are the principle objectives of the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) inspectors at the international arrival points. While all imported food, fish, agricultural, plant/forest products must be declared to Canada Customs officials upon arrival: • Some do not require either permits or certificates to be brought into the country; • Some must also be accompanied by certificates or permits because they have specific health requirements; and • Some are prohibited because they pose a serious risk of Come together...

Given that pest and disease circumstances vary throughout the world, it is important to seek information and advice from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) before planning to import food, fish, plant/forest, and agricultural products into Canada. The CFIA will cooperate with other federal departments and agencies in developing an integrated Port-of-Entry operations plan for the 2010 Hamilton Commonwealth Games.
