moved for leave to introduce Bill C-420, an act to establish a National Organ Donor Registry and to coordinate and promote organ donation throughout Canada.
Mr. Speaker, today I am reintroducing a private member's bill which I tabled last fall. The purpose of this bill is to create a national organ donor registry and to co-ordinate and promote organ donations throughout Canada.
The bill is very important because it would provide the opportunity to save lives by co-ordinating organ donors and needy recipients across Canada.
