Raw Kibbeh banned in Ontario, Canada
If that’s not a valid reason to go burn tires in front of the Canadian embassy, I don’t know what is!
Windsor-Essex County Health Unit inspectors are forcing Lebanese restaurants to take a popular traditional food off their menus because it is made with raw ground meat.
Kibbeh, a signature ground meat dish, has been served at Lebanese restaurants for years, but a report of contaminated raw kibbeh in Ottawa late last year has health inspectors taking a tougher stand. Restaurant owners say the sudden crackdown is costing them sales and upsetting longtime customers. [Link]

This sounds like discrimination to me..
If they ban raw kibbe , they should also ban sushi
I wouldn’t eat it in restaurants anyways…well except if it was @ the Wadi on Berdawni…
First world problems. Meanwhile in Lebanon…
If they’re doing this to the leb restaurants, what’s the policy on Steak Tartar in French ones??
We will still make it and sell it in Lebanese restaurants. They banned Tobacco a while back in Canada and we still smoke Argili in cafes and restaurants lol there is always a way around the law and we Lebanese are experts at bending the law; however burning tires is the next alternative LOL
