Sushi served in Ontario must be frozen then defrosted first

Not everyone is amused.

Yea, cuz most of us go to Ontario for our sushi needs?

I don't know about you but that's where I go...all the way from Indianapolis. Can't beat the Ontario Sushi. :p

Oh gross.

One thing I can't stand is not-fresh fish. I can't imagine eating raw fish if it has to be frozen and defrosted.

I really hope that regulation doesn't come to BC, but once Ontario does something, the rest of the country seems to follow suit.

That is pretty messed up. They're doing it because of the possibility of some sort of disease?

So essentially it's for no reason.

Swell.

Since this isn't sitting very well here, I bet it would be worse in BC. Toronto is now on its way down........darn those people at Queen's Park

This is really weird because I just saw a news article last month talking about how to tell the different between defrosted and fresh....

oh... I get it I found this article more informative: http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNew...20/?hub=Canada

It's about parasite that's never been an issue. "better safe than sorry". blah.

well, i don't eat sushi anyhow.

Update...
 

Provincial government MIGHT loosen ban...

There's no way I could eat Sushi that wasn't fresh.
