Health Canada on Wednesday announced a recall of mini hockey sticks for high lead levels.
About 3,240 hockey sticks were distributed across the country by Calgary-based Hotzee Inc. from April 2008 to October 2008.
The sticks, which are 61 cm in length, have the universal product code 622822421643.
Caregivers should take the hockey sticks away from children and throw them in the garbage.
The hockey sticks were made in China and imported by A.E.S. Imports Inc.
No adverse health effects have been reported.
