*[Enwl-eng] A legal loophole in this country allows human bodies to be sold for profit

[ENWLine]

 

According to Canadian law, this is completely legal. A Fashion Influencer Allegedly Made a Handbag Using a Literal Human Spine. Bodies Donated to Science Should Not Be Used for Commercial Gain!      Sign Now        When people donate their bodies to science, they are hoping that the remains will produce good in the world and advance research that could protect future generations of humans from suffering. But apparently, in Canada it is perfectly legal for some bodies donated to science to be sold as surplus -- and in one more horrendous case, allegedly used in fashion products that are flippantly marketed via Instagram. This apparently happened to a person in Canada when fashion designer and Instagram influencer Arnold Putra shockingly fashioned a handbag with a handle made from what he claimed was a human child's spine -- and then put it up for sale for thousands of dollars.    Sign the petition now to demand that Canadian Parliament amend existing law to make the use of human bodies for commercial gain illegal!   This grotesque use of a body for commercial gain must be prevented from ever happening again. Current laws must be amended to prohibit use for commercial purposes on a federal level in Canada. Donated bodies should be used for science and education, which is what people consent to in the first place. Sign now if you agree: Canadian Parliament must amend existing laws to explicitly prohibit the use of a body for commercial gain! Thank you, Jess Care2 Petitions Team P.S. An influencer fashioned a handbag with a handle made from what he claimed was a human child's spine -- Canadian Parliament must outlaw this! Sign the petition!      Sign Now
