I was so happy to read about the first baby friendly hospital in Canada last week and want to congratulate all involved, especially the staff of Brome-Missisquoi-Perkins Hospital in Cowansville, Quebec. I expected to find something in the weekend newspapers about it but was disappointed to find nothing at all. I wrote to the Toronto Star, The Toronto Sun and The Globe and Mail and had an email today from the ombudsman at the Star, saying that he knew nothing about it. I have since sent him more information. I think it would be helpful for other Canadian Lactnuts to write to the Canadian newspapers. The public has a right to know. email for the Globe and mail is [log in to unmask] Toronto Star [log in to unmask] Toronto Sun [log in to unmask] I know few of us can write like Marsha Walker but I think the quantity of letters makes a difference.
