Oh ye Gods, people in Toronto who buy cheese from places other than the St. Lawrence market deserve all they get.

What has it got to do with cheese? It's a story about a guy's body being found in a recycling bin and a third suspect sought by police. Or am I missing something here?

I have heard that Ontario is a very regulated province but having the police involved because someone has a disregard for how to sort their recycables seems a bit OTT to me.

Also now there's a report of a death due to salmonella poisoning from cheese in Quebec.

I thought pregant women were advised not to each soft cheeses such as brie, camembert and unpastuerised cheeses and milk because of the possibility of listeria.

Or doesnt this happen in Canada??
