The Saskatchewan government is working to create a provincial organ donor registry.
As part of its budget on Wednesday, the province announced it will spend $558,000 to set up the system.
“In Canada right now legally, families still have the option to opt-out even if it was their loved ones’ wishes to donate. I’m told that registries that are in operation that in those cases 90 per cent of families accept what the wishes were. Those without registries is less than 50 per cent,” Saskatchewan Health Minister Jim Reiter said.
