Listeriosis outbreak is for Maple Leaf Foods to fix, president says
By The Canadian Press
TORONTO — The president of Maple Leaf Foods is putting responsibility for an ongoing national outbreak of listeriosis squarely on his company’s shoulders.
The company “violated our accountability in this circumstance,” Michael McCain told a news conference Wednesday in Toronto.
Six deaths have been confirmed as part of the listeriosis outbreak, which has been linked to recalled meat products made by Maple Leaf Foods, while another nine deaths are under investigation.

“I emphasize: this is our accountability and it’s ours to fix, which we are taking on fully. We have and we continue to improve on our action plans.”
