New law in Canada
I'm from Montreal, canada, and low-carbing since few months.
Yesterday I read in the newpaper that they will, in december2005, bannish all products that are low-carb, and it will be bannish to wrote on a product the number of carb it contains!!!! They say that there are no proof that low-carb products are good for the health and that's why they will bannish them!!! I think that's completly ridiculous! We have the right to decide what we want to eat or not!!! Hum! Annie |

You Canadians have been letting your government exercise too much authority over your lives. Come to think of it, we Americans are guilty of the same thing. Hum! Annie |

Annie Hi Annie, Funny you mention this, my doctor and I were talking about this today, but I'm afraid you have the wrong facts or at least misread them. They are going to stop labelling the low carb products as low carb specialty foods on the front of the packages, they won't be able to say Atkins endorsed and they are not changing any nutrition labels.
