Canada's capital set to permit topless sun bathing


OTTAWA (Reuter) - Canada's capital is poised to allow women
to go topless at municipal pools and beaches, a city councillor
said Thursday.
If approved by the city council next week as expected,
Ottawa would become the first city in Ontario -- Canada's most
populous province -- to permit topless sun bathing at city-run
facilities.
The move comes amid a controversy over topless women that
was sparked in 1991 when a woman from Guelph, Ontario, about 50
miles southwest of Toronto, was fined for strolling topless. A
wave of topless solidarity protests followed.
Last December Ontario's highest court overturned the woman's
indecency conviction, effectively making it legal for women to
go topless in public. The Ottawa policy would mean women could
sun themselves topless at city facilities as well.
``We don't want our lifeguards to become the breast
police,'' City Councillor Diane Deans said in a phone interview.
