A Transcona restaurateur who received five health violations and thousands of dollars in fines blamed his customers, "aggressive" inspectors, competitors and political "enemies" for the charges. Cathay House owner Joe Chan said he was "shocked" by the number of fines received. "That really, really hurt me," he said. None of the dirty knives were used in preparing food, Chan said. If health violations can be corrected immediately through education, health inspectors will often forego issuing fines and simply make a note for future inspections.
