Abstract

On March 9, 2017, the Canadian parliament overwhelmingly passed the Genetic Non-Discrimination Act to prevent the use of genetic data to deny individuals health insurance, employment, housing or influence their child custody or adoption decisions. Supporters of the law noted the reluctance of Canadians to take genetic tests during clinical care for fear of the data being used against them
