Assert your right to know if you're being exposed to toxic chemicals

Did you know that the products you use on your face, your body, or for cleaning your home do not list all of the ingredients on their labels?

Companies in Canada are not required to test ingredients for safety before products go to market. And too often toxic ingredients are in the products that line store shelves. Every day, cleaning and personal care products that lack ingredient lists and warning labels unknowingly expose Canadians to toxic chemicals that are linked to allergies, endocrine or hormone disruption – and even cancer. Many are also persistent pollutants in our environment.

We spoke with consumers who agreed that Canadians need to know what goes in their daily products, especially those chemicals known to be toxic.

Do you believe that you have the right to know what's in the products you and your family are buying? Do you believe that you have the right to be warned of chronic health risks? Let us know today by signing this declaration:

"I have the right to know what ingredients are in the products I am buying. If the product contains harmful chemicals, I deserve a health warning label."
