PAGE 8 TERRACE BAY NEWS JANUARY 7, 1971 CANNED TUNA FISH - Cont'd from page 1 ... and the Honourable Jack Davis, Minister of Fisher- ies and Forestry, announced that as a result of wide- spread concern about mercury in the environment, all lots of canned tuna destined for the Canadian market are being analyzed for mercury. Those lots found to contain more than acceptable amounts are not being released for sale. The Ministers stressed that results to date pose no acute hazard to human health. The public need not be concerned about the safety of stocks of tuna at the retail level, or in homes. Staff of both Departments are continuing extensive programs of analys's for mercury in Canadian foods, to ensure that the public remains safe from risks of mercury poisoning. For example, numerous analyses of Canadian canned salmon have shown it ot be safe. ANNUAL TALENT NITE AT LEGION JAN. 23rd.
