Montreal Health Press publications are now online!
Printer-friendly versionA milestone in the Canadian women’s health movement!
The many publications that make up the archives of the Montreal Health Press have been scanned by the Canadian Museum for Human Rights and are now online.
The first publication of the MHP was the Birth Control Handbook, published 1968 at a time when it was still illegal to give out information about contraception in Canada. This and subsequent guides to the successful use of birth control methods have influenced and helped generations of women and men for over 40 years.
