Good news. The second news item talks about a bill in Canada called Bill S223.
Following the United Kingdom's bill last May to address forced organ harvesting,
Canada passed a bill December 14th to take measures against forced organ harvesting
and address the concerns that UN experts leveled against China's live organ harvest evidence in
2021. So this Bill S223 is also called Trafficking in Human Organs Act, and it blocks foreigners
from entering the Canadian borders if they're involved or complicit in organ trafficking,
and quote, bans Canadians from traveling abroad to receive an organ transplant without the informed
consent of a donor or someone authorized to give consent. And so it doesn't explicitly say that
this is targeting the Chinese Communist Party or China's forced organ harvesting, but China is
currently the biggest black market for organs, and they're the most well-known. This will really
help stem the flow of so-called organ tourists to go to China and be the, you know, the cash cows
to this horrendous crime that has been going on for two decades now. We're really looking forward
to how this will play into, like in practice, because it was just passed in December and so far
no one has been banned from coming into Canada's borders, but if Canadians in the future want to
get unauthorized organ transplants, they'll get a maximum penalty of 14 years in prison in Canada.
So I expect this will be, you know, a really big red flag and a warning for people who want to go
to China and get their organs, because now there's a lot of awareness about it,
so there's no excuse like, oh, I didn't know that this was from a prisoner of conscience.
