Mr. Speaker, today I present a petition calling on the House to move quickly in passing Bill S-240. The bill calls on the government to amend the Criminal Code to prohibit Canadians from travelling abroad to purchase illegally harvested organs and tissues. The practice of forced organ harvesting and illegal organ trafficking is cruel and evil. Our government needs to stand up for victims and get the bill passed.
An Act to amend the Criminal Code and the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (trafficking in human organs)
This bill was last introduced in the 42nd Parliament, 1st Session, which ended in September 2019.
