Submission + - Gay men cannot donate blood in Canada (bloodservices.ca)
FoxNSox writes: A statement recently posted on the Canadian Blood Services Homepage notes that Canadian Blood Services 'announced its decision on the policy of indefinitely deferring any male from donating blood if he has had sex with another male, even once, since 1977 (MSM).'
To reiterate this statement, the Canadian Blood Services committee announced that if any man has had sex with another man since 1977, that man may not donate blood. Put more bluntly, 'if you are gay, we don't want your blood.'
This will certainly add some more wood on the fire for gay rights activists.
