Yes, but companies get around this by marketing products as something other than cheese. You will notice that many of them are labelled "cheese food" because that's different from cheese. I believe that in Canada they are much stricter, but in the US you can have a lot less cheese in a product. For example, the product known as "american cheese" does not exists in Canada, as it's actually processed in block form. Here, it would have to be packaged as "cheese food" or "cheesy" product. In Canada, you never see blocks of processed cheese, except for Velveeta, which is labelled a "cheese spread."
The legislation around this is very complicated, but the link in related links may be helpful.

What are the primary secondary and tertiary sectors of making cheese?
When making cheese the primary sector is considered to be the producing of the raw materials which in this case would be the milking of the cows. The secondary sector is the manufacturing process where the milk is made into the finished product so this would be the creamery and the curdling process. The tertiary sector is where the finished product is distributed to the public or to the workers which could be anything from delivering the cheese to the resellers to the actual sale of the cheese by the shops.

How cheese is fermented?
After the whey is removed from the curd of the milk, it is sometimes flavored and then pressed into it's shape. The pressed curds are then left in a cool storage area to age. That is where the cheese develops and hardens as it ages. The process varies somewhat for different types of cheeses but the aging process is about the same.
