Talk:Canadian Blood Services

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Um, shouldn't this page have something about the fact that Candian Blood Services doesn't permit gay people to donate?

== Definitely if this were a larger article. Right now this is somewhat of a stub and probably meant to be that way. Other than that I'd defintely write a little about the blatant and poorly disguised discrimnation they practice ~~

• Discrimination? Hardly. Statistics show that gay people, especially gay men, are more likely to carry HIV than the rest of the general population. Canadian Blood Services is saving themselves prohibitive costs from testing blood that has a higher likelihood of being contaminated. Why go through all the time, effort and money to have blood you cannot use anyway? Matthew Cadrin 18:35, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

== Now there's some discrimination. Stats actually show that gay people are _not_ more likely to carry HIV. The gay community does not now and never has had the largest populations of HIV infections. It's all misinformation spread via homophobia. 70.49.57.112 10:37, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
