Here’s what’s being recalled for the week of June 30 to July 6:

UberBoost Inflatable Booster Car Seats

The booster car seats are sold in different colour combinations under these Amazon Standard Identification Numbers: B07R6NVP770, B07RR7ZYGY, and B07RB2KRCS.

These products lack Transport Canada’s National Safety Mark, indicating they haven’t been certified to meet the safety standards of the Motor Vehicle Restraint Systems and Booster Seats Safety Regulations.

According to Health Canada, using these restraints in a vehicle could heighten the risk of injury during a collision.

• Elevate Snapchill Coffee in the 354ml size—7 86899 57461 6 with an expiration date of July 7, 2024.

The drink is being recalled from the marketplace because it may permit the growth of Clostridium botulinum.

Symptoms in adults include facial paralysis, unresponsive pupils, difficulty swallowing, drooping eyelids, blurred or double vision, and speech difficulties including slurred speech and altered voice. Children may experience difficulty swallowing, slurred speech, weakness, and paralysis. Botulism doesn’t induce fever, but severe cases can be fatal.
