Supporting Breastfeeding -- Key Messages for National Breastfeeding Week.

10/02/2026

This year’s Canadian Breastfeeding Week theme is “Breastfeeding for a Sustainable Start in Life: Strengthen What Works.”

We know breastfeeding support works best when mothers receive skilled care without months of waiting, peer support between appointments, paid parental leave and respect in the workplace. It works when a parent has honest information, protection from aggressive marketing and people who listen without judgment while respecting their goals.

For 65 years, La Leche League Canada has offered something simple and powerful: experienced support from one mother or parent to another.

No mother should need money, luck or the right postal code to find help. No parent should have to reach a breaking point before support arrives. Mothers should never receive a list of impossible expectations, then face blame or guilt when the system around them offers nothing.

Breastfeeding support is health care, mental health support and community care. When we strengthen the supports that work and make them accessible to every family, we help create a more sustainable start in life for parents, babies and communities.
