Company fined $10K in E. coli outbreak at Calgary daycares

A judge has fined a commercial kitchen company $10,000 for bylaw offences linked to an E. coli outbreak at Calgary daycares that saw hundreds of children fall ill.

It is worth noting that the Trump administration is getting stricter about US visa rules and new instructions are being issued every day for visa conditions, due to which many students going to study in the US are at risk of being sent back to their countries.
