Potential constitutional objections to the MSM deferral policy with Kylee Wilyman

This episode is part of the McGill Journal of Law and Health podcast’s miniseries on the deferral of men who have sex with men (MSM) from blood donation in Canada.

In this episode, Sidney Black-Rotchin spoke with Kylee Wilyman about the legal elements of the MSM deferral policy. Ms. Wilyman received her Juris Doctor from the University of Saskatchewan and previously completed a Master of Science in Community Health and Epidemiology.

Sidney and Ms. Wilyman discussed the Canadian Blood Services v Freeman decision, what a Charter challenge to the deferral policy could look like today, and potential alternatives.
