含铅汽油于1990年12月正式从加拿大市场上移除。一个主要铅源的消除和随后儿童血铅水平的下降标志着一个重要的转折点,并引发了加拿大关于铅的新论述的出现。今天,儿童铅中毒被视为过去的问题或美国的问题。加拿大稀疏的监测数据支持这一观点。此外,联邦机构之间的紧张关系演变为权力斗争,加拿大卫生部最终成为主导权威机构,从而将重要的研究倡议置于默默无闻的境地,并形成了比美国更弱的铅监管反应。[J] .公共卫生杂志,2011;101:S176-S187。doi: 10.2105 / AJPH.2011.300185)
Leaded gasoline was officially removed from the Canadian market in December 1990. The removal of a major lead source and the subsequent decline in children's blood lead levels marked an important transition point and sparked the emergence of new discourse on lead in Canada. Today, childhood lead poisoning is viewed as a problem of the past or a problem of the United States. Sparse Canadian surveillance data supported this view. Moreover, tensions among federal agencies evolved into a power struggle, with Health Canada ultimately becoming the dominant authority, thereby relegating important research initiatives to obscurity and also shaping a vastly weaker regulatory response to lead than occurred in the United States.
