Risk: Product may contain milk which is not declared on the label.
What you should do: Residents with a milk allergy or lactose intolerance should check if the product can be returned to the store it was purchased from.

Risk: The box with the train set contains a tube of superglue, which is capable of bonding skin instantly. The lack of child-resistant packaging could result in unintentional exposure to these products and lead to serious illness or injury.
What you should do: Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled wooden toy train and discard the tube of superglue. The wooden toy train may be returned to the retailer for a refund or disposed of in regular household waste.
Dimensions Bluetooth Speaker Helmets
Risk: The affected helmets do not comply with the U.S. CPSC federal safety standard for bicycle helmets, posing a risk of head injury.
What you should do: Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled helmets and contact Sakar International, Inc. for a free replacement helmet.
Yardworks 15-Amp Electric Corded Snowblower
Risk: The power cable on the affected units may become brittle and break when exposed to temperatures below -20C, leading to a potential electric shock injury.

What you should do: Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled products and return them to any Canadian Tire Store for a full refund.
