All of the dogs need to be purchased from licensed suppliers who are highly regulated. The meat is all pre-cooked and then bbq'd onsite.
It's a travesty that there aren't more options available.

Regulation is certainly not always bad, but it always closes out some options. You give up the freedom for the safety, right? Torontoans (Torontoites?? Torontese??) can feel properly protected against the hazards of street vendors.
Of course the government could always (after regulating the vendors to death) provide a government subsidy to keep them in business.
