The purpose of this consultation is to solicit feedback on guidance proposed by the Food Directorate's Bureau of Microbial Hazards to reduce the potential microbiological risks associated with ready-to-eat smoked fish and multi-ingredient products containing smoked fish. These risks are due to the potential contamination and/or growth of certain foodborne pathogens of concern, i.e., Clostridium botulinum and Listeria monocytogenes. This document also provides guidance on inactivation methods for parasites that may contaminate the fish tissue.
