Calls grow for legislation on mandatory defibrillators in Quebec public spaces

Following a Global News report about a Saint-Lazare family who donated a defibrillator to their local park after the device saved their son’s life after a heart attack, there are renewed calls for the Quebec government to adopt legislation mandating automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in all public places. As Global’s Felicia Parrillo reports, advocates want the life-saving devices to be accessible to everyone.
