Lindsey's Law - Missing Person DNA Databank

This petition was published by Judy Peterson on Dec 08, 2010

We, the undersigned, Citizens of Canada, draw the attention of the House to the following:

That the families of missing persons deserve to know the fate of their loved ones and DNA identification is a critical tool toward this goal;

That there are 7,000 people missing in Canada and 600 unidentified remains sitting in Coroner’s office across Canada. There are also approx. 50,000 unidentified samples obtained from crime scenes that may provide clues as to the fate of a missing person;

Therefore your petitioners call upon Parliament to enact legislation to create a DNA Missing Persons Database and Unidentified Human Remains Database, which would link with the existing National DNA databank and assist in determining the fate of missing persons; it could also identify serial murders and make our country a safer place.
