Went looking for an update about post #127 Pierrefonds school. No luck on an update, but I did find this:

Maple Leaf meat recall: list of products affected
2006-11-07 07:07:04

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency and Maple Leaf Foods have called in police to investigate whether some meat products have been tampered with.
Maple Leaf employees found a small number of syringe casings on company property, the federal agency and company said in a joint statement.
The syringes were found on Sunday at the company's plant in Kitchener, Ont., said CFIA safety inspector Garfield Balsom.
``We were informed Sunday evening that there was an investigation ongoing and we followed up with that and as a result today determined that there was some product that had gotten into the marketplace,'' Balsom said.
He added products pulled from store shelves and examined so far have not turned up any traces of contamination.
There have been no reported illnesses associated with the nationally distributed products. However, Maple Leaf is recalling them as a precaution.

There are the products affected:
