"Hi,
Health Canada does not recommend the use of ozone generators. There
is no

More information about ozone generators can be found in the
following
information sheet:

and

Let me know if you have further questions,

ahh... now we see what you mean.
ozone emitting. as in as opposed to products & machines that
are ozone-free -- the kind that do not deplete the ozone
layer?
rainee, can you confirm with your company that this is the same
"ozone" they're talking about?
if they say no... ask them to explain how it is not.
likewise, did you submit a copy of product technical data to Health
Canada, or are they simply responding to you on the simple word
"ozone"?
as all locals should know, ENV should be the relevant authority in
this case in the local context of "approving" machines.
