Harvey & Gurvir’s Law

From thunderbay.wiki

Harvey & Gurvir’s Law, formally known as Bill 225, is a piece of legislation in the Ontario legislature addressing how a prenatal diagnosis of Down Syndrome is delivered.[1]

As of March 2021, the bill was drafted in collaboration with the Down Syndrome Association of Ontario and introduced by MPP Sara Singh in November 2020. The bill aims to provide parents with up-to-date ministry-approved information and establishes a 48-hour waiting period after a diagnosis.[1]

The name appears in the Lakehead University Alumni Spotlight profile of Sarah Valiquette-Thompson.[1]
