What i found out was that if you consent to donating you organs after you die your family can reject your wishes and not let that happen. If you as a individual signed consent to donating your organs after death is legally binding. According to a recent commentary in the Canadian Medical Association Journal familyes have the right to veto the consent. Under the Territory legislater there is nothing allowing famlies to override an individuals consent. " Reaseachers found about 20% of families of regisdered doners overrode their loved ones consent ". I feel if you consent to giving your organs after you passaway your family may not veto and reject your wishes. I think it should be ilegal to veto after the consent is already given .

.The Eu is hoping to signing a landmark free trade deal with Canada. European Council President Donald Tusk had given Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel until Monday, three days before the planned signing, to resolve the impasse.Tusk now has to contact Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and call off an EU-Canada summit that was scheduled for Thursday in Brussels, "We cannot give a yes," Paul Magnette, the premier of the Wallonia region, told reporters as he emerged. He said the main problems remained not with Ottawa, which has already agreed to modifications in the deal, but with the EU authorities". We have a Yes from the federal, Flemish and German-speaking communities and it's a No from the others," said Flanders premier Geert. "It's a real shame," the centre-right leader said. "We're the laughing stock of the whole world." Michel said it was too early to say CETA was dead and that the Walloons and he were still open to dialogue but that he must inform Tusk that Belgium was not in a position to consent now to a deal that all 27 other EU member states are ready to support. EU negotiators have stressed that they are willing to keep talking with the Walloons. The issue goes beyond just a trade deal with Canada, the EU's 12th-largest trading partner.If CETA fails, the EU's hopes of completing similar deals with the United States or Japan would be in tatters, undermining a bloc already battered by Britain's vote to leave it and disputes over Europe's migration crisis.
As Aleppo keeps getting bombed a new reality is descending on Syria. The belief of the conflict there will only end up with a political solution that might not be true. " Russia says the conflict is to complex to expect a peaceful settlement." The British have concluded that efforts to bring another ceasefire to Syria have failed. There are still millions of Syrians in there homes or in refugee camps in there own country. At one medical clinic there are not enough beds for the people who need help. In one of the pictures it showed a man with open wounds, writhing on the blood-soaked floor of one of the clinics. There is no civil defence there is no first aid. Assad destroyed the country and killing many people. Assad launched his new offensive last Thursday the United Nation says at least 200 civilians have been killed since then. As a Canadian I feel like I take medical clinics and health care for granted. And when I hear about this kind of stuff it makes me feel so upset. Because these people are suffering and laying on the floor in there own blood, it makes me feel upset In Syrian citizens say at least 10 people got killed in an airstrike in the same place where a suspected chlorine gas attack was the day before.Citizens say there was one child among the strike that happened Wednesday The Aleppo Branch of Syrian Observatory for Human Rights search and rescue put a total at 20 dead and more that 40 wounded. Medical workers in the city have said " The opposition-controlled neighbourhood was hit with chlorine gas on Tuesday, through the report could not be independently verified". They have treated up to 70 people breathing difficulty. A 13 year old girl and a 29 year old man died from further complications on Wednesday. Citizens and Medical workers say Syrian government and Russian jets are behind the attacks. Using poisonous gases are not uncommon Syrian civil wars, both sides have denied using them but both sides have blamed each other for using them.
In Venezuela in South America the hospitals are in trouble .Here in the Caribbean port town of Barcelona, two premature infants died recently on the way to the main public clinic because the ambulance had no oxygen tanks. The hospital has no fully functioning X-rays or kidney dialysismachines because they broke long ago. And because there are no open beds, some patients lie on the floor in pools of their blood.It is a battlefield clinic in a country where there is no war.Some come here healthy, and they leave dead. Doctors try and keep people alive by hand pumping air in there lungs. When I find out about things like this it makes me very upset. As a global citizen I feel that we should be doing everything we can to help make new hospitals. We should be doing everything in our power to help these people. People who live in wealthy developed countries should be helping by sending doctors to help the sick who are not getting medical attention needed and money to buy new machinery. Young people like me should get this out to their friends and tell people about it because this is an issue that needs to be solved. Source: Casey, Nicholas.
