Mr. Speaker, I would like thank my colleague from Edmonton Manning for this bill, and especially for sharing that very touching story about donating an organ to his son.
The only minor issue the Bloc Québécois has with the bill is that the Canadian Organ and Tissue Donors Association already holds a ceremony to pay tribute to posthumous donors and living donors. In addition, two medals already exist, namely the ambassador of health medal and the good Samaritan medal.
We simply need to ensure that the law recognizes the work already being done by organizations such as the Canadian Organ and Tissue Donors Association, Transplant Québec, Héma-Québec and Canadian Blood Services. I hope the member would agree that it is imperative to invite representatives of these organizations to appear before the committee to ensure that the recognition he wants to promote is aligned with the missions of these organizations.
I would like to hear my colleague's thoughts on that.
