AED Legislation

Important Information from the Heart and Stroke Foundation Hello Everyone, We wanted to inform you of some great news! The Heart and Stroke Foundation of Ontario met on Tuesday with Ted McMeekin, MPP for Ancaster-Dundas-Falmborough-Westdale and he is introducing Private Member's Legislation to make AEDs mandatory in public spaces.YESTERDAY was First Reading.

The Bill's first reading is a formality and this will really gain attention for Second Reading which is scheduled for May 6th. On this date, there will be time devoted to debate and allow all parties an opportunity to speak on the Bill. If the Bill passes 2nd Reading it will then hopefully be sent to Committee stage where it gets debated further and presentations can be made by the public and the Heart and Stroke Foundation.

In order to give this bill a good chance of being passed, we will be working to gain public and media attention for the legislation. HSFO will also be contacting other MPP's to gather their support for the Bill. If you would like to help get this legislation passed into law, please contact your local MPP and ask them to support this Bill for Second Reading. We will keep you updated as news develops.
