The Canadian government is said to be ready to declare as toxic a chemical widely used in plastics for baby bottles, beverage and food containers as well as linings in food cans.
Canada would be the first country to make a health finding against B.P.A., which has been shown to disrupt the hormonal systems of animals.

I wonder if there are suitable alternatives available on the market?
