It's the first of its kind in Canada, and it is right here in Thunder Bay.
A pregnancy test dispenser has been unveiled at Lakehead University, inside the women's washroom at the Outpost bar.
The groundbreaking move has one goal in mind -- raise awareness around Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder and the effects of drinking alcohol while pregnant.
The tests are available for $3.
It's all part of the Think before you Drink campaign that kicked off last July.
LU Student Union vice-president Charmaine Romaniuk hopes the dispenser has a powerful effect on people and the decisions they make.
Romaniuk says if a woman knows she's pregnant and stops drinking within 18 days of it happening, FASD will not affect the baby.
