Funny...

When my Bubbies and Zaidy's arrived in Canada from Poland, they never got a special guide.

Imagine that. Link

Let me guess: Your Bubbies and Zaidy's probably kept kosher, which involves a higher degree of cleanliness than most people bother with. So they might not have NEEDED a health guide.

Immigrants these days are, alas, much likelier to eat halal food - for which the sanitation requirements are more honored in the breach than the observance. (See: Filthy Halal Food - Since 1999

I noticed that the CBC article said the following:

"Pottie said the guidebook can be an effective tool for time-saving and inexpensive treatment. He cites the presence of intestinal parasites in some migrants. He said most doctors would probably find, on average, 12 parasites, and most doctors wouldn't know which ones to treat.

'We've discovered, through a detailed look at evidence, that virtually all these parasites will go away except for two: strongyloides and schistosoma, which are particular to Asia and Africa. So we're able to refine it to a simple blood test.'"

Now that's just plain disgusting. Maybe those experts think that the parasites will eventually go away (except for strongyloides and schistosoma), but NOT before the carriers have passed them along to other people, or dispersed the parasites into the environment. Especially if some of those people (who lack adequate training in sanitation) go to work in the food industry.
