Reported risk: Health Canada's sampling and evaluation program has determined that the recalled blinds pose a strangulation hazard by not having an inner cord stop. Inner cord stops are devices that prevent an inner cord from being pulled and forming a loop which young children may pull around their necks, posing a risk of strangulation. Neither Health Canada nor Carsan has received reports of incidents or injuries related to the use of these products. For more information on the hazard, see Blind Cord Safety .
