OTTAWA Menstrual products will be available for free at four city of Ottawa community centres. Under a proposed pilot project, menstrual products will be available in female and universal washrooms at Albion Heatherington Community Centre, Overbrook Community Centre, Sandy Hill Community Centre and Foster Farm Community Centre. Last February, Coun. Jenna Sudds asked staff to investigate the cost and feasibility of implementing a program to provide menstrual products in city facilities. “I have full confidence that if men menstruated, there would (be) menstrual products available everywhere,” Sudds wrote in her inquiry. “Providing women and girls with access to free menstrual products will help to alleviate the burden low-income women face while on their period, allowing these individuals to thrive.”
