Blame Canada some more

Posted on October 28, 2007 by Doug Powell
After 45 illnesses including 11 hospitalizations and one death over the past three months, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) at 3 a.m. Eastern time this morning warned Canadians not to consume certain packages of ground beef, most of it produced in produced as far back as June.

The products are being recalled as a result of  the CFIA’s investigation and traceback conducted on contaminated beef involving Ranchers Beef Ltd.(Establishment 630), Balzac, Alberta.

There have been no reported illnesses associated with the consumption of  these products.

But there have been lots of illnesses in both the U.S. and Canada linked to product from the same Ranchers Beef facility, including the Topps outbreak across the U.S.
