Maple Leaf listeria outbreak, Ben Chapman, CBC National News

He contends his 23,000 employees live in a culture of food safety and have an unwavering commitment to keeping your food safe. I allege that is an outright false statement of fact, and I hold documentary proof of such. Maple Leaf does have a propensity for permitting their companies operations to perform with actionable negligence, all in the name of saving a buck, and in this case that buck was at a cost of human life.

The problem is that, at least in europe, the food quality control institutions are left to the free market. So companies leave the quality control to those institutions that are the least strict. Some things should be government-controlled at all costs.

Terrible quality.

I am actually not surprised that this outbreak occurred. I used to work at another ML plant. Health and safety rules were constantly being broken. I observed so much including machinery not being sanitized after cleaning, floors of rooms being high pressed washed although there were ready-to-eat product in the room, poor training methods for new workers, the health lab room itself was filthy, & much more. I spoke up & eventually quit. Of course I was only labeled as a troublemaker, and a quiter.
