44th Parl. 1st Sess.

Context: House Hansard - 18 - Dec/15/21
Mr. Marty Morantz (Charleswood—St. James—Assiniboia—Headingley, CPC)
Madam Speaker, I rise to table a petition also in support of Bill S-223. This bill seeks to combat forced organ harvesting and trafficking. It would make it a criminal offence for a person to go abroad and receive an organ taken without the consent of the person giving the organ. This bill has passed in the Senate unanimously three times, and MPs from multiple parties have been putting forward a form of this bill for over 13 years. This bill passed unanimously in the House of Commons in 2019 in exactly the same form. Petitioners hope that this Parliament is the one that finally gets this done.
