Masks are not required in Canada.  I guess they just have better lungs that us USA'ers.   To answer your question NO

anyone read Randy Olivers article in Sept ABJ on quick strips?   He made a statement about how crazy the mask requirement for these is and even made the comment that the added expence might stop large operations from using them
