cfia logo The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has issued a recall on beef that might be tainted with E. coli.

The recall includes boneless chuck steak and ground beef from Rancher's Meat sold at Shopper's Outlet and Mr. G stores in Prince George, BC in June, as well as ground beef sold at Buy-Low Foods in Lillooet in August.

In a related story, Rancher's Meat is also being blamed on several illnesses in the U.S. as well. The company supplied Topps with beef. Both companies are now out of business.
