Health Canada warns Canadians of safety risks linked to baby nests and loungers

2 months 3 weeks ago
A baby nest/lounger is a small, portable bed for an infant that has soft, padded sides. In Canada, baby nests/loungers must comply with the Cribs, Cradles and Bassinets Regulations of the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act (CCPSA). Due to continued incidents and concerns related to baby nests/loungers across North America, Health Canada is reminding consumers of the risks with these products. Health Canada is not aware of any reports of injury related to the use of these products in Canada. However, for similar products, in the United States, between 2021 and 2023, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) received 45 reports of incidents involving baby nests/loungers, 29 of which resulted in fatalities. Health Canada is currently conducting a sampling and evaluation program for these products. As part of this, certain brands of baby nests/loungers (listed above) are being recalled and removed from the market because they do not meet current safety regulations in Canada. Consumers are encouraged to consult the list regularly for updates, as it will be updated if there are other affected products identified. For information on previously recalled baby nests/loungers, check the recalls and safety alerts database.

Emblem Cannabis Corporation recalls Divvy Island Rush Infused Pre-Rolls due to labelling issue

3 months 2 weeks ago
Emblem Cannabis Corporation applied the wrong label to the affected product.  The affected product only contains dried cannabis pre-rolls rather than infused cannabis pre-rolls. As such, the labels for the affected products have the wrong brand name, cannabinoid values, list of ingredients, cannabis class and net weight. The labels show that the THC, Total THC, CBD, and Total CBD values are higher than the actual values.
