1. Make NBS-Newborn Screening LAW Mandatory in all Provinces 
In light to recent events regarding our 12-year old daughter; we have learned that she was never tested ( NBS-newborn screen) back in 1998 and it’s possible that our daughter might have inborn errors of metabolism.
We are petitioning the health minster to make new born screening LAW mandatory across the board throughout Alberta. Compared to our neighbouring province Saskatchewan.
