To the Honourable John Baird, Minister of the environment, and the Honourable Tony Clement, Minister of Health, Bisphenol A is a hormone disruptor found in many everyday products including food cans, plastic water containers and baby bottles. Studies show that people can be exposed to Bisphenol A when it leaches out of these products. Low-doses can harm our health. Canadians\' health should be protected from harmful toxic chemicals. Ban the use of Bisphenol A in food and beverage containers immediately. Phase out other uses over the next five years! Sincerely,

I have been sending these signatures to the offices of Minister Baird and Minister Clement every single day. Post the link to this petition on your Facebook wall right now. Text three friends and demand they sign today.

The scale of this response confirms that people are done waiting for action on toxic chemicals in our food supply. Now we need to turn this energy into direct pressure on the Minister of the Environment. Email your representative today and demand they prioritize this ban.

Why are we still putting this stuff in our food containers?? It should not be legal to poison us like this.

I try my best to buy BPA free but it is almost impossible to find everything. The govt needs to step in and ban it for good.

Get this garbage out of our supply chain. My kids drink out of these bottles and its scary to think about what is leaching into their water.

BPA is everywhere. Stop letting companies use toxic chemicals just to save a few bucks on plastic.
