2010 Siena Meats Listeria Recall National Class Action
Merchant Law Group is launching a national class action on behalf of all Canadians who purchased or consumed recalled meats produced by Siena Foods.
This litigation seeks financial compensation for all Canadians who purchased or consumed these contaminated deli meats, regardless of whether or not illness has resulted. (Proof of purchase is not required to contact our law firm.)
The lawsuits will allege that Siena Foods Ltd. were negligent in the production of listeria contaminated meat products. Listeriosis can cause a range of illnesses, and the Ontario government has been investigating possible links to listeria contamination from Siena products.

Listeria monocytogenes (commonly called Listeria) is a bacteria that may cause a potentially fatal infection called listeriosis. Listeria can have an incubation period of anywhere from a few days to three months. This means that a person might be carrying the bacteria, but might not display symptoms immediately. This infection is particularly dangerous for pregnant women, the elderly and individuals with weakened immune systems. In adults, particularly the elderly or those with compromised immune systems, the disease can lead to brain infection (meningitis), blood infection (septicemia), lung infection (pneumonia), heart infection (endocarditis) and even death. For more information on Listeria, please see the Health Canada website at http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/hl-vs/iyh-vsv/food-aliment/listeria-eng.php.
