Radio-Canada’s Enquête program has uncovered fake maple syrup being sold on store shelves in Quebec. The lab responsible for testing maple syrup in Quebec says it’s a first. The producer in question is blaming suppliers from out of province.

This is an urgent matter of national security. Call Ann Murray, Rush, The Montreal Canadians, Rick Mercer and anyone still alive from SCTV to form an investigation squad. Mark Carney needs to invoke the notwithstanding clause to strip the perpetrators of their constitutional right to a fair trial and we'll jump straight to summary execution.
Then we'll apologize to Canadians and celebrate reconciliation with a pancake breakfast at a sugar shack.
In Quebec, maple syrup offenses are the only way someone can get the death penalty. /s
But ACER doesn't inspect syrup in cans that are sold directly by producers to grocery stores, which is how Bourdeau sells his syrup.
"Our mandate is to analyze large containers," Clermont said.
"We don't classify maple syrup from a producer who sells directly to a supermarket."
Lagacé said such syrup can be subject to random spot checks, but not systematically tested like syrup in bulk.
Nice loophole. Maybe they should start.
... and how, pray tell, are they supposed to do this, logistically?
Station inspectors in every maple syrup farm? Who's paying for that?
