Article Abstract:
The recent health inspection blitz that swept through Toronto's restaurant industry underscores an issue that is widely debated in the industry. This issue is the definition of what constitutes fair and accurate public disclosure of food safety and public health.

However, the real issue was public disclosure since information about mouse dropping and unwashed hands were being kept from the public.
