Invasion of the bighead carp has Ontario scared
Wimps! Afraid of a fish!A Scarborough supermarket has been fined thousands of dollars after the province's Ministry of Natural Resources discovered the store was selling a live invasive fish. During an inspection by ministry officers in February of last year, a live bighead carp was found in the New Wai Hong supermarket on Brimley Rd. "It's alive! It's alive!" The case was heard on Wednesday by Justice of the Peace Alice Napier, who fined the supermarket $3,500. "The scales of justice in the instant case weigh against the fishmonger. I therefore find you gill-ty..." The supermarket went out of business last year, shortly after the ministry inspection. "So what'rya carpin' about, eh?" Posted by: Mike 2010-01-19 |
