'They didn't do their job': Calgary business says AHS inspectors failed to properly investigate claims before ordering shutdown

Questions why Alberta Agriculture or vendor weren't contacted sooner, before the store was forced to close

A northeast Calgary business cited for selling uninspected meat says the “unprofessional” actions of Alberta Health Services inspectors have unfairly harmed its reputation.

Bangla Bazar-Butcher Shop was one of three Calgary stores issued closure orders last week over uninspected meat and unhygienic conditions. Bangla and another business, Bombay Meat Masala & Samosa Factory, were able to reopen the following day after addressing issues cited by AHS inspectors.
