I'm sure many of people have heard about Maple leaf and the listeria. Well, everyone knows people are going to sue. It's an easy way to get money. But do you think it's fair?

I understand that people are sick and some have died, but really I don't think it's fair. It was a mistake, an accident. I'd understand the company paying the family our of an apology. But, It pisses me off with those people who are suing for 'mental distress'. It's bull ****, and they shouldn't be given a dime.

What do you think?

Edit: I'm talking about Maple Leaf Food up here in Canada.

Maple Leaf is a food company and apparently some of their food had a bacteria in it that caused people to get sick.
