Below is a press release I had received (from INFACT Canada, I think) about the posters being used in a breastfeeding promotion campaign, but I don't remember any longer when it took place. (All the posters are at http://www.infactcanada.ca/mall/Posters_Third.ASP as Cee pointed out): TORONTO (Reuters) - Pictures of "convict" babies and babies suckling at their mothers' breasts are being posted in buses and subways in Toronto as part of a month-long advertising campaign to end discrimination against mothers who breast-feed in public. Subway cars will display posters of three "convict" babies photographed in the style of police mugshots with the slogan: "Breast-feeding in public is not a crime." Another poster shows a baby suckling a breast with the caption, "Don't think of it as a woman's right to breast-feed. Think of it as a baby's right to eat." will be on platforms of some of the city's busiest subway stations. The C$80,000 ($54,000) campaign, which kicked off to mark World Breast-Feeding Week, was sponsored by the Ontario Human Rights Commission, the city of Toronto and the Infant Feeding Action Coalition (INFACT).
