Dear John,

Earlier in June, we sent letters to leading Canadian retailers urging them to commit to switching to bisphenol-free receipts by the end of the year.

Exposure to bisphenols (including BPA and BPS) is increasingly linked to health conditions such as obesity, ADHD in children and hormone-related cancers such as breast and prostate cancer.

These retailers have not responded to our letters with a commitment to switch to safer alternatives. That’s why we’re targeting the leading grocery stores in Canada to take immediate action. Costco, Loblaws, Metro, Sobeys and Walmart employ thousands of cashiers and workers who handle hundreds of receipts on a daily basis.  

Sign this petition and join us in demanding that Costco, Loblaws, Metro, Sobeys and Walmart stop using receipts coated with toxic bisphenols!

We’ve partnered with the largest union representing retail workers, United Food and Commercial Workers Canada (UFCW), Breast Cancer Action Quebec and Mind the Store to pressure these retailers to take action.

Everyone should have the right to a safe and healthy work environment. Join us in telling these leading grocery stores that it’s unacceptable to expose their workers to harmful chemicals.

Sincerely, 

P.S. Our work to kick out toxics is not possible without your support. Please support our campaign with a donation. Thanks in advance for all your help!
