Thank you, Chair.

Thank you to all the witnesses for being here.

A few weeks ago I met Ms. Blackstock. Mr. Webber and I co-hosted a reception on organ and tissue donation by Canadian Blood Services.

Thank you for sharing your story.

Thank you, Mr. Webber, for that session.

My question is to you, Dr. West. What are the conditions in which someone passes away that enables them to qualify as a deceased donor, such as a cardiac death? When can a patient not donate their organ?
