This sucks, but I can understand both sides here.

Canada has strangely high standards when it comes to food regulations. Especially in restaurants. And lowering those could result in an influx of low quality processed foods entering the market.

On the other hand, the reason it's failing to meet the standard is that it has added vitamin B which feels a bit absurd since those additions are allowed in other products here.

I hope this gets resolved in a way that lets this dude keep selling Vegemite at his shop.

The vitamin B in Vegemite is naturally occurring from the yeast process. It’s not added.
