E. coli prompts recall from P.E.I. shellfish company
CBC
Five Star Shellfish Inc. is recalling its Malpeque brand of large standard oysters because of E. coli contamination.
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency says the oysters were distributed to retailers on P.E.I. They were shipped on Aug. 15.
The recall notice does not include information about how the bacterial contamination was discovered, or whether anyone has been made ill by the oysters.
E. coli bacteria can cause symptoms include diarrhea, stomach cramps and occasionally fever.
These symptoms usually appear three to four days after infection.

Sarnia City Council will hold a special meeting Tuesday morning to respond to social media comments made by Coun. Bill Dennis, who criticized city spending on a new mural by Indigenous artist Kennady Osborne as “virtue signalling by woke politicians” — then made a series of comments in response to a reply from Aamjiwnaang Chief Janelle Nahmabin that some have characterized as unprofessional and aggressive.
