Score Safely in the Bedroom: Toronto Offers Free World Cup-Themed ...
Toronto Public Health says the campaign includes internal condoms, dams and lubricants as officials prepare for a possible rise in sexually transmitted infections.
- On Tuesday, Toronto Public Health launched its CondomTO initiative, distributing free soccer-themed condoms to encourage safe sex as the city prepares to host the FIFA World Cup 2026.
- TPH first launched CondomTO in 2014 to promote sexual health during World Pride, later drawing inspiration from the Pan American and Parapan American Games to reduce stigma through creative wrappers.
- Six new designs feature soccer puns including "what a finish" and "block those shots", while TPH data from 2024 shows Sexually Transmitted and Blood-Borne Infections accounted for about 64 per cent of all diseases significant to public health.
- Residents can obtain free supplies while supplies last at four TPH-operated sexual health clinics, including locations on 5110 Yonge Street, 662 Jane Street, 160 Borough Drive, and 2340 Dundas Street West.
- With more than 300,000 visitors expected for the June 11-July 19 tournament, TPH aims to connect people with sexual health resources to mitigate potential risks associated with mass gatherings.
