Whole body donation

Responsibility : Agence de la santé et des services sociaux

Any person over 14 may decide to donate their body for teaching or research after death. The body of a minor can be donated with the consent of the parents or tutor. Five institutions in Québec accept donated bodies. At the time of death, families must inform the institution in question as to whether they wish to recover the ashes or body.
 

Note

You should advise your next of kin of your decision to donate your body.
