I have heard Canada's Dr. Jack speak twice and met him at the ILCA conference in July in Las Vegas. He is a wonderful man who helps thousands of mothers and babies overcome obstacles to breastfeeding. Today, I saw this article on him which explains his work:

My favorite quote:
He suggests that a change in approach is needed to this issue. Instead of breast feeding supporters having to prove that breast milk is as good as formula, the onus should be on the formula companies to prove that their formula is appropriate and healthy for newborns.
Recently,Health Canada cut off funding for his clinic which, in my opinion, is a true crime. Here is his site and another site he contributes to:
