Manitobans now have to go online to indicate organ and tissue donation wishes.
Health, Seniors and Active Living Minister Cameron Friesen is encouraging Manitobans to have life-saving conversations with their families to mark their intent to be organ tissue donors using the online registry.
The province made the change so people don’t have to carry around a card and to make it easier for Manitobans.
The donor cards have been gradually phased out since 2016.
In 2018, a record of 11 400 Manitobans registered online.
The website to register is www.signupforlife.ca.
