Consumer Advisory - Salmonella Contamination of Eggs in the United States

The Government of Canada is closely following an investigation by U.S. authorities into Salmonella contamination of eggs in the United States. No potentially affected eggs have been shipped to Canada. American eggs must meet strict grading standards, and none of the five grading stations currently implicated in the Wright County Egg Farm recall are eligible to export to Canada.
