Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Event [Text Block]	15. Subsequent Event *Amendment to Series B-1 Preferred Stock Dividend Rights* On April 17, 2024, the Company, SunOpta Foods and Oaktree entered into an Amending Agreement related to the elimination of the dividend rights attached to the Series B-1 Preferred Stock effective from and after December 31, 2023. The Series B-1 Preferred Stock previously paid a cumulative dividend of 8.0% per year that could be paid in-kind or in cash at the Company's option, which dividend would have increased from 8.0% to 10.0% per year and become payable only in cash at the end of the Company's third quarter in 2029. All other rights and obligations of the Company, SunOpta Foods, and Oaktree in connection with the Series B-1 Preferred Stock remain unchanged. The Company will account for the elimination of the dividend rights on a prospective basis beginning in the second quarter of 2024.
