A wide investigation across Canada collected fish from fishmongers and compared their species with DNA testing. It found many fish sold as an expensive type are substituted for cheaper fish like tilapia. A summary can be found at the Toronto Star. They even provided a photo gallery of common deceptions.

The Wyre is a daily email provided by xyyz.ca. The target audience is men in Toronto but they have provided lots of valuable information useful to the general Toronto public.

Recently they published XYYZ: GuyMaps – Jacob Richler’s Guide to Fine Food Shops in YYZ, a map of all the fine butchers and fishmongers in Toronto. Included is my favorite butchers, Cumbrae’s and the Healthy Butcher.
