On behalf of Keith Rowley:

I'm curious, in light of this discussion (and my idiosyncratic fascination with the legal issues raised by films like Repo Men and The Island), whether there is any statutory, regulatory, or case law addressing whether the Canadian PPSA -- or its counterparts in England, Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, Scotland, or any other ODG-er jurisdiction -- allows consensual personal property security interests in human tissue or human biological materials.
