A bill that could help save lives is making its way through the Nova Scotia Legislature. The amendment to the Volunteer Services Act aims to alleviate any fears the public may have about using an automatic external defibrillator, known as an AED. "What the bill does is relieve any individual or an organization that has an AED from being liable." That includes volunteers who use an AED and any organization whose AED is used. Fraser thinks the amendment will help get more AEDs into circulation.
