Despite facing a persistent shortage, Canadian Blood Services and Héma-Quebec persist in discriminatory practices, especially targeting men who have sex with men. The ban applies to all blood and tissue donations, including post-COVID plasma, and has now been expanded to include trans women without gender-affirming surgery. These policies, driven by stigma, contradict Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's commitment in 2015 to lift the ban. Unifor advocates for challenging these discriminatory practices, highlighting the importance of policies based on high-risk behaviors rather than individual characteristics. Let's unite in demanding a blood donation system that is fair and inclusive.
