After 10 years of gestation, the Canadian House of Commons has passed legislation that bans somatic cell nuclear transfer to create new stem cell lines but that allows researchers to derive stem cells from discarded embryos from fertility clinics. The Assisted Human Reproduction Act (C-13) was approved by a vote of 149 to109 on Tuesday night (October 28).
