Only inspections completed since January 1, 2020 appear on this website. Since inspections are carried out throughout the year, and some premises are inspected only once per year, some food premises may not have inspection results posted on this website until a full year has passed. You can also call your local Northwestern Health Unit office during office hours and ask to speak to a public health inspector who can give you access to the past inspection results over the phone.

This website is designed to provide the same type of information as would be available from a request under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act.
