Organ donation in Canada has more than one option and most people only read the first one. You filled out your driver’s license paperwork, checked the box, and moved on. What you may not know is that donating your organs and donating your body to science are two separate checkboxes, and you can change your answer if you got it wrong.

A butcher in Brantford originally committed to donating an organ for a specific person. That person died before the surgery. He donated anyway. Green Shirt Day is coming, and the story of Logan Boulay from the Humboldt crash is still the reason at least one person revisited what they signed. A Regina couple hitting 65 years of marriage keeps it simple: aim to be the couple that makes the news.

The wedding industry wants $20,000 up front and a year and a half of saving before you can start. The Saskatchewan couple didn’t mention the budget once. That might be the whole point.
