There have been 11 sets of products recalled for CCCR violations in 2009. This does not include all the products that were simply removed from store shelves until the labels are made compliant; Health Canada does not release statistics on removals.
The products that received a full public recall in 2009 (as of July 2009) are as follows:
Jul. 2009: toilet bowl cleaner (lacking child-resistant container)
May 2009: fire fuel (lacking child-resistant container)
May 2009: jewelry cleaner (lacking child-resistant container, flammability and corrosive warnings)
May 2009: spray deodorant (lacking flammability and explosive warnings)
May 2009: chafing fuel (flammability)
May 2009: 14 cleaning chemicals (lacking child-resistant container)
May 2009: 13 pool chemicals (lacking child-resistant container)
Apr. 2009: 3 hair care products (lacking flammability and explosive warnings)
Feb. 2009: shaving cream (lacking flammability and explosive warnings)
Feb. 2009: jewelry cleaner (lacking child-resistant container, flammability and corrosive warnings)
Jan. 2009: 3 brake cleaners (flame projection too long)
We expect this list to increase in 2009, to match the approximately two dozen recalls in 2008.
