Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]	1. Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation These interim consolidated financial statements of SunOpta Inc. (the "Company" or "SunOpta") have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information. Accordingly, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation have been included and all such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Operating results for the quarter ended March 28, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending January 2, 2021, or for any other period. The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared on a basis consistent with the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 28, 2019. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements, and notes thereto, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2019. As described in note 13, in the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company changed its segment reporting to reflect changes to its operating structure. All segment information presented in these consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March 30, 2019 has been restated to reflect the new segment reporting structure. Fiscal Year The fiscal year of the Company consists of a 52- or 5 3-week period ending on the Saturday closest to December 31. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Effective the first quarter of 2020, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update "ASU" 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments," which requires the immediate recognition of expected versus incurred credit losses for most financial assets. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 under the modified retrospective approach and applied the new guidance to its short-term accounts receivable. The adoption of this new guidance did not result in the recognition of additional allowances for credit losses. The Company closely monitors receivable balances and estimates the allowance for credit losses based on historical collection experience, and account aging analysis and trends. The Company evaluates the adequacy of the allowance each reporting period, considering individual customer account reviews, write-offs recorded in the period, sales forecasts and trends, and current and expected economic conditions.

Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements The following table presents for each of the fair value hierarchies, the assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 28, 2020 and December 28, 2019: March 28, 2020 Fair value asset (liability) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 $ $ $ $ Commodity futures contracts (1) Unrealized short-term derivative liability (272 ) (272 ) — — Forward foreign currency contracts (2) Not designated as hedging instruments 133 — 133 — December 28, 2019 Fair value asset (liability) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 $ $ $ $ Commodity futures contracts (1) Unrealized short-term derivative asset 284 284 — — Forward foreign currency contracts (2) Not designated as hedging instruments (73 ) — (73 ) — (1) As at March 28, 2020, outstanding contracts comprised exchange-traded commodity futures for cocoa and coffee, which are used as part of the Company's risk management strategy and represent economic hedges to limit risk related to fluctuations in the price of these commodities. These contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. Exchange-traded futures are fair valued based on unadjusted quotes for identical assets priced in active markets and are classified as level 1. Gains and losses on changes in the fair value of these contracts are included in cost of goods sold on the consolidated statement of operations. For the quarter ended March 28, 2020, the Company recognized a loss of $0.6 million (March 30, 2019 - loss of $0.1 million) related to changes in the fair value of these contracts. On the consolidated balance sheets, unrealized gains and losses on these contracts are included in other current assets and other current liabilities, respectively. As at March 28, 2020, the Company had net open futures contracts to sell 1,520 metric tons ("MT") of cocoa (December 28, 2019 - to sell 3,210 MT) and to purchase 68 MT (December 28, 2019 - to sell 306 MT) of coffee. (2) Foreign forward currency contracts As part of its risk management strategy, the Company enters into forward foreign exchange contracts to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. For any open forward foreign exchange contracts at period end, the contract rate is compared to the forward rate, and a gain or loss is recorded. These contracts are included in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, as the inputs used in making the fair value determination are derived from and are corroborated by observable market data. These contracts typically represent economic hedges that are not designated as hedging instruments; however, certain of these contracts may be designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. As at March 28, 2020, the Company had open forward foreign exchange contracts to sell euros to buy U.S. dollars with a notional value of €29.1 million ($32.4 million), to sell British pounds to buy euros with a notional value of £0.6 million (€0.7 million), and to sell Swiss francs to buy U.S. dollars with a notional value of CHF 0.6 million ($0.6 million). As these contracts were not designated as hedging instruments, gains and losses on changes in the fair value of the derivative instruments are included in foreign exchange loss or gain on the consolidated statement of operations. For the quarter ended March 28, 2020, the Company recognized a gain of $0.2 million (March 30, 2019 - gain of $0.6 million) related to changes in the fair value of these contracts. Unrealized gains and losses on these contracts are included in accounts receivable and accounts payable, respectively, on the consolidated balance sheets.

The Global Credit Facility is used to support the working capital and general corporate needs of the Company's global operations, in addition to funding future strategic initiatives. The Global Credit Facility also includes borrowing capacity available for letters of credit and provides for borrowings on same-day notice, including in the form of swingline loans. On January 28, 2020, the credit agreement was amended to, among other things, extend the maturity date of the Global Credit Facility to March 31, 2022. Individual borrowings under the Global Credit Facility have terms of six months or less and bear interest based on various reference rates plus an applicable margin. The margin ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% with respect to base rate and prime rate borrowings and from 1.25% to 1.75% for eurocurrency rate and bankers' acceptance rate borrowings. In connection with the amendment of the credit agreement on January 28, 2020, the applicable margin rate on any loans under the Global Credit Facility (including the U.S. Subfacility, as described below) is increased by an additional 0.50% while the Company's total leverage ratio exceeds a specific threshold. On September 19, 2017, the Company entered into an amendment to the Global Credit Facility to add a $15.0 million U.S. asset-based credit subfacility (the "U.S. Subfacility"). On October 22, 2018, the Global Credit Facility was further amended to increase the commitment under the U.S. Subfacility to $20.0 million. Commencing on March 31, 2019, quarterly amortization payments on the aggregate principal amount of the U.S. Subfacility are equal to $3.33 million, and these payments may be funded through borrowings under the revolving facilities of the Global Credit Facility. Borrowings repaid under the U.S. Subfacility may not be borrowed again. As at March 28, 2020, $6.7 million remained drawn on the U.S. Subfacility. Borrowings under the U.S. Subfacility bear interest based on various reference rates plus a margin based on average borrowing availability for the preceding fiscal quarter, ranging from 2.00% to 2.50% with respect to base rate and prime rate borrowings and from 3.00% to 3.50% for eurocurrency rate and bankers' acceptance rate borrowings. As at March 28, 2020, the weighted-average interest rate on all borrowings under the Global Credit Facility was 3.07%. Obligations under the Global Credit Facility are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company's subsidiaries and, subject to certain exceptions, such obligations are secured by first-priority liens on substantially all of the assets of the Company. The Global Credit Facility contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict, subject to certain exceptions, the Company's ability to create liens on assets; sell assets and enter into sale and leaseback transactions; pay dividends, prepay junior lien and unsecured indebtedness and make other restricted payments; incur additional indebtedness and make guarantees; make investments, loans or advances, including acquisitions; and engage in mergers or consolidations. The foregoing covenants are subject to certain threshold amounts and exceptions as set forth in the credit agreement. (2) On April 13, 2020, a subsidiary of The Organic Corporation B.V. ("TOC"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, extended its €6.0 million revolving credit facility agreement until July 31, 2020. Borrowings under this facility used to cover the working capital needs of TOC's Bulgarian operations and are secured by the accounts receivable and inventories of the Bulgarian operations and fully guaranteed by TOC. Interest accrues under the facility based on EURIBOR plus a margin of 2.75. (3) On October 20, 2016, the Company's subsidiary, SunOpta Foods Inc. ("SunOpta Foods"), issued $231.0 million of 9.5% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2022 (the "Notes"). As at March 28, 2020, the outstanding principal amount of the Notes was $223.5 million, reflecting the redemption of $7.5 million principal amount by SunOpta Foods in October 2017. Debt issuance costs are recorded as a reduction against the principal amount of the Notes and are being amortized over the six-year term of the Notes. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 at a rate of 9.5% per annum. The Notes will mature on October 9, 2022. Giving effect to the amortization of debt issuance costs, the effective interest rate on the Notes is approximately 10.4% per annum. At any time after October 9, 2019, SunOpta Foods may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 104.750% from October 9, 2019 through October 8, 2020, 102.375% from October 9, 2020 through October 8, 2021 and at par thereafter, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the date of redemption. Certain additional redemption rights were applicable prior to October 9, 2019. In the event of a change of control, SunOpta Foods will be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes at 101.000% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase. The Notes are secured by second-priority liens on substantially all of the assets that secure the credit facilities provided under the Global Credit Facility, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens. The Notes are senior secured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with SunOpta Foods' existing and future senior debt and senior in right of payment to any future subordinated debt. The Notes are effectively subordinated to debt under the Global Credit Facility and any future indebtedness secured on a first-priority basis. The Notes are initially guaranteed on a senior secured second-priority basis by the Company and each of its subsidiaries (other than SunOpta Foods) that guarantees indebtedness under the Global Credit Facility, subject to certain exceptions. The Notes are subject to covenants that, among other things, limit the Company's ability to (i) incur additional debt or issue preferred stock; (ii) pay dividends and make certain types of investments and other restricted payments; (iii) create liens; (iv) enter into transactions with affiliates; (v) sell assets; and (vi) create restrictions on the ability of restricted subsidiaries to pay dividends, make loans or advances or transfer assets to the Company, SunOpta Foods or any guarantor of the Notes. The foregoing covenants are subject to certain threshold amounts and exceptions as set forth in the indenture governing the Notes. In addition, the indenture provides for customary events of default (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods), which include nonpayment, breach of covenants in the indenture, certain payment defaults or acceleration of other indebtedness, a failure to pay certain judgments and certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the trustee or holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may declare the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on, if any, all the Notes to be due and payable. As at March 28, 2020, the estimated fair value of the outstanding Notes was approximately $224 million, based on quoted prices of the most recent over-the-counter transactions (level 2).

Series A Preferred Stock

Temporary Equity [Abstract]
Series A Preferred Stock [Text Block]	8. Series A Preferred Stock On October 7, 2016, the Company and SunOpta Foods entered into a subscription agreement (the "Series A Subscription Agreement") with Oaktree Organics, L.P. and Oaktree Huntington Investment Fund II, L.P. (collectively, "Oaktree"). Pursuant to the Series A Subscription Agreement, SunOpta Foods issued an aggregate of 85,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to the Oaktree for consideration in the amount of $85.0 million. In connection with the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Company incurred direct and incremental expenses of $6.0 million, which reduced the carrying value of the Series A Preferred Stock. The carrying value of the Series A Preferred Stock is being accreted to the redemption amount of $85.0 million through charges to accumulated deficit over the period preceding October 7, 2021. These accretion charges amounted to $0.3 million and $0.3 million for the quarters ended March 28, 2020 and March 30, 2019, respectively. In connection with the Series A Subscription Agreement, the Company agreed to, among other things (i) ensure SunOpta Foods has sufficient funds to pay its obligations under the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock and (ii) grant each holder of Series A Preferred Stock the right to exchange the Series A Preferred Stock for shares of common stock of the Company (the "Common Shares"). The Series A Preferred Stock is non-participating with the Common Shares in dividends and undistributed earnings of the Company. The Series A Preferred Stock had a stated value and initial liquidation preference of $1,000 per share. Cumulative preferred dividends accrue daily on the Series A Preferred Stock at an annualized rate of 8.0% of the liquidation preference prior to October 5, 2025 and 12.5% of the liquidation preference thereafter (subject to an increase of 1.0% per quarter, up to a maximum rate of 5.0% per quarter on the occurrence of certain events of non-compliance). Prior to October 5, 2025, SunOpta Foods may pay dividends in cash or elect, in lieu of paying cash, to add the amount that would have been paid to the liquidation preference. For quarterly periods prior to the first quarter of 2020, dividends declared on the Series A Preferred Stock were paid in cash by SunOpta Foods. For the first quarter of 2020, SunOpta Foods elected to declare a dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock to be paid in kind on May 12, 2020. As a result, the aggregate liquidation preference of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock will increase by $1.7 million. At any time, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock may exchange their shares of Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, into the number of Common Shares equal to, per share of Series A Preferred Stock, the quotient of the liquidation preference divided by $7.50 (such price, the “Series A Exchange Price” and such quotient, the “Series A Exchange Rate”). As at March 28, 2020 and December 28, 2019, the aggregate shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding were exchangeable into 11,333,333 Common Shares. The Series A Exchange Price is subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments, including a weighted-average adjustment for issuances of Common Shares below the Series A Exchange Price, provided that the Series A Exchange Price may not be lower than $7.00 (subject to adjustment in certain circumstances). On April 24, 2020, in connection with the issuance of Series B-1 Preferred Stock pursuant to the Series B Subscription Agreement (see note 14), the Series A Exchange Price was reduced from $7.50 to $7.00. SunOpta Foods may cause the holders of Series A Preferred Stock to exchange all of their shares of Series A Preferred Stock into a number of Common Shares equal to the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding multiplied by the Series A Exchange Rate if (i) fewer than 10% of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued on October 7, 2016 remain outstanding, or (ii) on or after October 7, 2019, the average volume-weighted average price of the Common Shares during the then preceding 20 trading day period is greater than 200% of the Series A Exchange Price then in effect. At any time on or after October 7, 2021, SunOpta Foods may redeem all of the Series A Preferred Stock for an amount per share equal to the value of the liquidation preference of the Series A Preferred Stock at such time, plus accrued and unpaid dividends. In connection with the Series A Subscription Agreement, the Company issued 11,333,333 Special Shares, Series 1 to Oaktree, which entitles Oaktree to one vote per Special Share, Series 1 on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of Common Shares, together as a single class, subject to certain exceptions. Additional Special Shares, Series 1 will be issued, or existing Special Shares, Series 1 will be redeemed, as necessary to ensure that the aggregate number of Special Shares, Series 1 outstanding is equal to the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding from time to time multiplied by the Series A Exchange Rate in effect at such time. As at March 28, 2020 and December 28, 2019, 11,333,333 Special Shares, Series 1 were issued and outstanding. On April 24, 2020, as a result of the reduction in the Series A Exchange Price (as described above), an additional 809,524 Special Shares, Series 1 were issued to Oaktree. The Special Shares, Series 1 are not transferable, and the voting rights associated with the Special Shares, Series 1 will terminate upon the transfer of the Series A Preferred Stock to a third party, other than a controlled affiliate of Oaktree. Oaktree is entitled to designate up to two nominees for election to the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and have the right to designate one individual to attend meetings of the Board as a non-voting observer, subject to Oaktree maintaining certain levels of beneficial ownership of Common Shares on an as-exchanged basis. For so long as Oaktree beneficially own or control at least 50% of the Series A Preferred Stock issued on October 7, 2016, including any corresponding Common Shares into which such Series A Preferred Stock are exchanged, Oaktree will be entitled to (i) participation rights with respect to future equity offerings of the Company, and (ii) governance rights, including the right to approve certain actions proposed to be taken by the Company and its subsidiaries.

Commitments and Contingencies Product Recall On November 20, 2017, Treehouse Foods, Inc., several of its related entities, and its insurer filed a lawsuit against the Company in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois titled Treehouse Foods, Inc. et al. v. SunOpta Grains and Food, Inc. The Company was served with the Summons and Complaint on January 24, 2018. After the Company removed the case to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, the plaintiffs filed an Amended Complaint on April 23, 2018, and a second Amended Complaint on October 12, 2018. The plaintiffs allege economic damages resulting from the Company's 2016 voluntary recall of certain roasted sunflower kernel products due to the potential for listeria monocytogenes contamination. The plaintiffs brought claims for breach of contract, express and implied warranties and product guarantees, negligence, strict liability, negligent misrepresentation, and indemnity seeking $16.2 million in damages. There are no allegations of personal injury. On March 29, 2019, the court dismissed the plaintiffs' claims for negligence, strict liability, negligent misrepresentation, and common law indemnity. The Company is vigorously defending itself against the remaining contract and warranty-based claims. The Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome of this claim, nor can it estimate the amount of loss, or range of loss, if any, that may result from this claim. Other Claims In addition, various claims and potential claims arising in the normal course of business are pending against the Company. It is the opinion of management that these claims or potential claims are without merit and the amount of potential liability, if any, to the Company is not determinable. Management believes the final determination of these claims or potential claims will not materially affect the financial position or results of the Company.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segmented Information [Text Block]	13. Segmented Information Effective the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company implemented changes to its organization and leadership structure to align with the operational and strategic objectives established by the Company's CEO. As a result, the Company established two new segments - a Plant-Based Foods and Beverages segment and a Fruit-Based Foods and Beverages segment - based on the synergistic nature of the underlying principal product ingredients. In addition, the Company realigned the Global Ingredients segment to combine its international organic ingredients operations and its co-manufactured premium juice program, based on shared raw material sourcing. Each segment has dedicated management, sales, marketing, plant operations, product development and business support teams, with full accountability to the CEO. With these changes, the composition of the Company's three operating segments is as follows: Global Ingredients includes the sourcing and sale of organic and non-GMO ingredients, including fruits, vegetables, oils, fats, coffee, nuts, dried fruits, sugars, liquid sweeteners, seeds, grains, rice and pulses, and the processing of value-added ingredients including cocoa liquor, butter and powder, sunflower kernel, oil and cakes, sesame seeds, and avocado oil. In addition, it includes third-party co-manufacturing arrangements to produce consumer-packaged premium juice products (including private label orange juices, lemonades, and functional waters), utilizing internally-sourced raw materials. It also included the operations of the soy and corn business that was sold in 2019. Plant-Based Foods and Beverages includes plant-based beverages and liquid and dry ingredients (utilizing almond, soy, coconut, oat, hemp, and other bases), as well as broths, teas and nutritional beverages. In addition, it includes packaged dry- and oil-roasted inshell sunflower and sunflower kernels, as well as corn-, soy- and legume-based roasted snacks, and the processing and sale of raw sunflower inshell and kernel for food and feed applications. Fruit-Based Foods and Beverages includes individually quick frozen ("IQF") fruit for retail (including strawberries, blueberries, mango, pineapple, blends, and other berries), IQF and bulk frozen fruit for foodservice (including purées, fruit cups and smoothies), and custom fruit preparations for industrial use. In addition, it includes fruit snacks, including bars, twists, ropes and bite-sized varieties. Corporate Services provides a variety of management, financial, information technology, treasury and administration services to each of the Company's operating segments. When reviewing the operating results of the Company's operating segments, management uses segment revenues from external customers and segment operating income/loss to assess performance and allocate resources. Segment operating income/loss excludes other income/expense items. In addition, interest expense and income taxes are not allocated to the operating segments. Segment Revenues and Operating Income Reportable segment operating results for the quarters ended March 28, 2020 and March 30, 2019 were as follows: Quarter ended March 28, 2020 Plant-Based Fruit-Based Global Foods and Foods and Ingredients Beverages Beverages Consolidated $ $ $ $ Segment revenues from external customers 128,352 106,242 101,355 335,949 Segment operating income (loss) 8,114 13,853 (4,702 ) 17,265 Corporate Services (5,806 ) Other income, net (see note 9) 1,298 Interest expense, net (8,280 ) Earnings before income taxes 4,477 Quarter ended March 30, 2019 Plant-Based Fruit-Based Global Foods and Foods and Ingredients Beverages Beverages Consolidated $ $ $ $ Segment revenues from external customers 134,842 81,276 89,157 305,275 Segment operating income (loss) 6,543 2,528 (5,605 ) 3,466 Corporate Services (3,146 ) Other income, net (see note 9) 43,512 Interest expense, net (8,739 ) Earnings before income taxes 35,093 Segment Depreciation and Amortization Depreciation and amortization by reportable segment for the quarters ended March 28, 2020 and March 30, 2019 was as follows: Quarter ended March 28, 2020 March 30, 2019 $ $ Global Ingredients 1,197 1,469 Plant-Based Foods and Beverages 2,368 1,477 Fruit-Based Foods and Beverages 4,136 4,228 Total segment depreciation and amortization 7,701 7,174 Corporate Services 1,221 1,128 Total depreciation and amortization 8,922 8,302

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Event [Text Block]	14. Subsequent Event Series B Preferred Stock On April 15, 2020, the Company and SunOpta Foods entered into a subscription agreement (the "Series B Subscription Agreement") with Oaktree and Engaged Capital, LLC, Engaged Capital Flagship Master Fund, LP and Engaged Capital Co-Invest IV-A, LP (collectively, "Engaged"), which contemplated the issuance by SunOpta Foods of shares of exchangeable, voting Series B-1 Preferred Stock and exchangeable, voting Series B-2 Preferred Stock (together with the Series B-1 Preferred Stock, the "Series B Preferred Stock"). The Series B Preferred Stock ranks on par with the Series A Preferred Stock. On April 24, 2020, pursuant to the Series B Subscription Agreement, SunOpta Foods issued 15,000 shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock to each of Oaktree and Engaged for aggregate consideration of $30.0 million and 30,000 shares total. The Series B-1 Preferred Stock has a stated value and initial liquidation preference of $1,000 per share. Cumulative preferred dividends accrue daily on the Series B-1 Preferred Stock at an annualized rate of 8.0% of the liquidation preference prior to September 30, 2029 and 10.0% of the liquidation preference thereafter (subject to an increase of 1.0% per quarter, up to a maximum rate of 5.0% per quarter on the occurrence of certain events of non-compliance). Prior to September 30, 2029, SunOpta Foods may pay dividends in cash or elect, in lieu of paying cash, to add the amount that would have been paid to the liquidation preference. The failure to pay dividends in cash for any quarter ending after September 30, 2029 will be an event of non-compliance. At any time, the Series B-1 Preferred Stock may be exchanged, in whole or in part, into the number of Common Shares equal to, per share of Series B-1 Preferred Stock, the quotient of the liquidation preference divided by $2.50 (such price, the "Series B-1 Exchange Price" and such quotient, the "Series B-1 Exchange Rate"). As at April 24, 2020, the aggregate shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock outstanding were exchangeable into 12,000,000 Common Shares. The Exchange Price is subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments, including a weighted-average adjustment for issuances of Common Shares below the Exchange Price, provided that the Exchange Price may not be lower than $2.00 (subject to adjustment in certain circumstances). SunOpta Foods may cause the holders of the Series B-1 Preferred Stock to exchange all of their shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock into a number of Common Shares equal to the number of shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock outstanding multiplied by the Series B-1 Exchange Rate if (i) fewer than 10% of the shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock issued on April 24, 2020 remain outstanding, or (ii) on or after April 24, 2023, the average volume-weighted average price of the Common Shares during the then preceding 20 trading day period is greater than 200% of the Series B-1 Exchange Price then in effect. At any time, if a holder of Series B Preferred Stock elects to exchange, or SunOpta Foods causes an exchange of Series B Preferred Stock, the number of Common Shares delivered to each applicable holder may not cause such holder’s beneficial ownership to exceed 19.99% of the Common Shares that would be outstanding immediately following such exchange (the “Series B Exchange Cap”). At any time on or after April 24, 2025, SunOpta Foods may redeem all of the Series B-1 Preferred Stock for an amount per share equal to the value of the liquidation preference of the Series B-1 Preferred Stock at such time, plus accrued and unpaid dividends. The Company has the right, but not the obligation, to require each of Oaktree and Engaged to purchase its proportionate share of up to 15,000 shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock for aggregate consideration of up to $30.0 million, and up to 30,000 shares total, by giving notice to Oaktree and Engaged on or before July 15, 2020. The exchange price for the Series B-2 Preferred Stock (such price, the "Series B-2 Exchange Price") will initially be that amount which is equal to a 30% premium to the 15-day volume-weighted average price of the Common Shares determined as at the date of notice, provided that the Series B-2 Exchange Price cannot be less than $2.00 or greater than $3.50 per underlying Common Share. The dividend terms on the Series B-2 Preferred Stock would be the same as the Series B-1 Preferred Stock. Oaktree and Engaged will be entitled to vote the Series B Preferred Stock with the Common Shares on an as-exchanged basis, subject to a permanent 19.99% voting cap. As a result of the voting cap, each of Oaktree and Engaged will only be able to vote its Series B Preferred Stock to the extent that, when taken together with any other voting securities each investor controls, such votes do not exceed 19.99% of the votes eligible to be cast by all security holders of the Company. On April 24, 2020, the Company designated Special Shares, Series 2 to serve as the mechanism for attaching exchanged voting to the Series B Preferred Stock. The Special Shares, Series 2 entitle the holder thereof to one vote per Special Share, Series 2 on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of Common Shares, voting together as a single class, subject to certain exceptions. The Special Shares, Series 2 are not transferrable and the voting rights associated with the Special Shares, Series 2 will terminate upon the transfer of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock to a third party, other than an affiliate of Oaktree or Engaged, as applicable. On April 24, 2020, 6,000,000 Special Shares, Series 2 were issued to Engaged, equal to the number of Common Shares issuable to Engaged on the exchange of all of the shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock held by it, and no Special Shares, Series 2 were issued to Oaktree, as Oaktree was subject to the Series B Exchange Cap.

Line of Credit Facility, Description				On February 11, 2016, the Company entered into a five-year credit agreement for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks in the maximum aggregate principal amount of $350.0 million, subject to borrowing base capacity (the "Global Credit Facility"). The Global Credit Facility is used to support the working capital and general corporate needs of the Company's global operations, in addition to funding future strategic initiatives.  The Global Credit Facility also includes borrowing capacity available for letters of credit and provides for borrowings on same-day notice, including in the form of swingline loans. On January 28, 2020, the credit agreement  was amended to, among other things, extend the maturity date of the Global Credit Facility to March 31, 2022. Individual borrowings under the Global Credit Facility have terms of six months or less and bear interest based on various reference rates plus an applicable margin. The margin ranges from 0.25% to 0.75% with respect to base rate and prime rate borrowings and from 1.25% to 1.75% for eurocurrency rate and bankers' acceptance rate borrowings.  In connection with the amendment of the credit agreement on January 28, 2020, the applicable margin rate on any loans under the Global Credit Facility (including the U.S. Subfacility, as described below) is increased by an additional 0.50% while the Company's total leverage ratio exceeds a specific threshold.

Debt Instrument, Description				On October 20, 2016, the Company's subsidiary, SunOpta Foods Inc. ("SunOpta Foods"), issued $231.0 million of 9.5% Senior Secured Second Lien Notes due 2022 (the "Notes").  As at March 28, 2020, the outstanding principal amount of the Notes was $223.5 million, reflecting the redemption of $7.5 million principal amount by SunOpta Foods in October 2017.  Debt issuance costs are recorded as a reduction against the principal amount of the Notes and are being amortized over the six-year term of the Notes.
Debt Instrument, Issuance Date				Oct. 20, 2016
Debt Instrument, Face Amount				$ 223,500	$ 231,000
Debt Instrument, Redemption, Amount				$ 7,500
Debt Instrument, Frequency of Periodic Payment				Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 at a rate of 9.5% per annum.
Debt Instrument, Maturity Date				Oct. 9, 2022
Debt Instrument, Redemption, Description				At any time after October 9, 2019, SunOpta Foods may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 104.750% from October 9, 2019 through October 8, 2020, 102.375% from October 9, 2020 through October 8, 2021 and at par thereafter, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the date of redemption.  Certain additional redemption rights were applicable prior to October 9, 2019.  In the event of a change of control, SunOpta Foods will be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes at 101.000% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase. The Notes are secured by second-priority liens on substantially all of the assets that secure the credit facilities provided under the Global Credit Facility, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens.  The Notes are senior secured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with SunOpta Foods' existing and future senior debt and senior in right of payment to any future subordinated debt. The Notes are effectively subordinated to debt under the Global Credit Facility and any future indebtedness secured on a first-priority basis.  The Notes are initially guaranteed on a senior secured second-priority basis by the Company and each of its subsidiaries (other than SunOpta Foods) that guarantees indebtedness under the Global Credit Facility, subject to certain exceptions. The Notes are subject to covenants that, among other things, limit the Company's ability to (i) incur additional debt or issue preferred stock; (ii) pay dividends and make certain types of investments and other restricted payments; (iii) create liens; (iv) enter into transactions with affiliates; (v) sell assets; and (vi) create restrictions on the ability of restricted subsidiaries to pay dividends, make loans or advances or transfer assets to the Company, SunOpta Foods or any guarantor of the Notes.  The foregoing covenants are subject to certain threshold amounts and exceptions as set forth in the indenture governing the Notes.  In addition, the indenture provides for customary events of default (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods), which include nonpayment, breach of covenants in the indenture, certain payment defaults or acceleration of other indebtedness, a failure to pay certain judgments and certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency.  If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the trustee or holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes may declare the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest on, if any, all the Notes to be due and payable. As at March 28, 2020, the estimated fair value of the outstanding Notes was approximately $224 million, based on quoted prices of the most recent over-the-counter transactions (level 2).

SunOpta Grains and Food, Inc.  The Company was served with the Summons and Complaint on January 24, 2018.  After the Company removed the case to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, the plaintiffs filed an Amended Complaint on April 23, 2018, and a second Amended Complaint on October 12, 2018.  The plaintiffs allege economic damages resulting from the Company's 2016 voluntary recall of certain roasted sunflower kernel products due to the potential for listeria monocytogenes contamination.  The plaintiffs brought claims for breach of contract, express and implied warranties and product guarantees, negligence, strict liability, negligent misrepresentation, and indemnity seeking $16.2 million in damages.  There are no allegations of personal injury.  On March 29, 2019, the court dismissed the plaintiffs' claims for negligence, strict liability, negligent misrepresentation, and common law indemnity.  The Company is vigorously defending itself against the remaining contract and warranty-based claims.  The Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome of this claim, nor can it estimate the amount of loss, or range of loss, if any, that may result from this claim.
Loss Contingency Damages Sought Value	$ 16.2

Preferred Stock, Liquidation Preference Per Share | $ / shares	$ 1,000
Preferred Stock Annualized Rate	8.00%
Preferred Stock, Dividend Payment Terms	Cumulative preferred dividends accrue daily on the Series B-1 Preferred Stock at an annualized rate of 8.0% of the liquidation preference prior to September 30, 2029 and 10.0% of the liquidation preference thereafter (subject to an increase of 1.0% per quarter, up to a maximum rate of 5.0% per quarter on the occurrence of certain events of non-compliance). Prior to September 30, 2029, SunOpta Foods may pay dividends in cash or elect, in lieu of paying cash, to add the amount that would have been paid to the liquidation preference. The failure to pay dividends in cash for any quarter ending after September 30, 2029 will be an event of non-compliance.
Convertible Preferred Stock, Terms of Conversion	At any time, the Series B-1 Preferred Stock may be exchanged, in whole or in part, into the number of Common Shares equal to, per share of Series B-1 Preferred Stock, the quotient of the liquidation preference divided by $2.50 (such price, the "Series B-1 Exchange Price" and such quotient, the "Series B-1 Exchange Rate").
Number of common shares available due to exchangeable preferred stock	12,000,000
Preferred stock exchange, description of exchange price	The Exchange Price is subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments, including a weighted-average adjustment for issuances of Common Shares below the Exchange Price, provided that the Exchange Price may not be lower than $2.00 (subject to adjustment in certain circumstances).
Convertible preferred stock, Settlement terms	SunOpta Foods may cause the holders of the Series B-1 Preferred Stock to exchange all of their shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock into a number of Common Shares equal to the number of shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock outstanding multiplied by the Series B-1 Exchange Rate if (i) fewer than 10% of the shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock issued on April 24, 2020 remain outstanding, or (ii) on or after April 24, 2023, the average volume-weighted average price of the Common Shares during the then preceding 20 trading day period is greater than 200% of the Series B-1 Exchange Price then in effect. At any time, if a holder of Series B Preferred Stock elects to exchange, or SunOpta Foods causes an exchange of Series B Preferred Stock, the number of Common Shares delivered to each applicable holder may not cause such holder’s beneficial ownership to exceed 19.99% of the Common Shares that would be outstanding immediately following such exchange (the “Series B Exchange Cap”).

Convertible Preferred Stock, Terms of Conversion	The exchange price for the Series B-2 Preferred Stock (such price, the "Series B-2 Exchange Price") will initially be that amount which is equal to a 30% premium to the 15-day volume-weighted average price of the Common Shares determined as at the date of notice, provided that the Series B-2 Exchange Price cannot be less than $2.00 or greater than $3.50 per underlying Common Share. The dividend terms on the Series B-2 Preferred Stock would be the same as the Series B-1 Preferred Stock. Oaktree and Engaged will be entitled to vote the Series B Preferred Stock with the Common Shares on an as-exchanged basis, subject to a permanent 19.99% voting cap. As a result of the voting cap, each of Oaktree and Engaged will only be able to vote its Series B Preferred Stock to the extent that, when taken together with any other voting securities each investor controls, such votes do not exceed 19.99% of the votes eligible to be cast by all security holders of the Company. On April 24, 2020, the Company designated Special Shares, Series 2 to serve as the mechanism for attaching exchanged voting to the Series B Preferred Stock. The Special Shares, Series 2 entitle the holder thereof to one vote per Special Share, Series 2 on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of Common Shares, voting together as a single class, subject to certain exceptions. The Special Shares, Series 2 are not transferrable and the voting rights associated with the Special Shares, Series 2 will terminate upon the transfer of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock to a third party, other than an affiliate of Oaktree or Engaged, as applicable. On April 24, 2020, 6,000,000 Special Shares, Series 2 were issued to Engaged, equal to the number of Common Shares issuable to Engaged on the exchange of all of the shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock held by it, and no Special Shares, Series 2 were issued to Oaktree, as Oaktree was subject to the Series B Exchange Cap.
