Rowan's Law (Concussion's)
"Rowan Stringer was just 17 when she died two years ago, on Mother’s Day, after suffering what proved to be a fatal concussion during a high school rugby game in Ottawa. It was her second concussion within a week.
The coroner’s inquest that followed cast a harsh light on youth sports organizations, pointing to a lack of protocols that experts say must be addressed to keep our kids safe." - National Post- Rownas Law
The Bill enacts Rowan's Law (Concussion Safety), 2018. ... A sport organization must not register an individual who is under the prescribed age in a sports activity unless the individual confirms that they have reviewed the concussion awareness resources approved by the Minister of Tourism, Culture and Sport.
