The Toronto Star reports around 150 parents and children recently demonstrated at Queen’s Park to encourage the provincial government take immediate steps to ban bisphenol A (BPA), a chemical reportedly associated with cancer from baby bottles and children’s drinking cups. BPA is allegedly known to leach into food and has been linked to a variety of health problems, including breast cancer, obesity, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and a wide range of other developmental problems.
