As World Cup attention builds, Christian Eriksen’s story reminds us cardiac emergencies can happen anywhere. In 2021, immediate CPR and defibrillation saved his life. This week, his ICD helped protect him again. CPR saves lives. AEDs save lives. Access matters. ❤️

Proud to see Ontario’s first AED registry recognized at Queen’s Park. 🫀⚡ aedfoundationontario.ca
It was a pleasure to welcome Heart & Stroke to Queen's Park. Our government is proud to be supporting the province's first AED registry - making it faster and easier to access lifesaving defibrillators - while investing in post-stroke rehabilitation closer to home.

A remarkable reminder that cardiac arrest does not care about politics. On Parliament Hill, a Liberal staffer and Parliamentary Protective Service officers helped save a Conservative staffer’s life. AED awareness, fast action, and preparedness save lives. aedfoundationontario.ca/

Thank you for the conversation, Councillor Thompson. We appreciate the opportunity to share more about how AED awareness and a strong public registry can help strengthen emergency response across communities. The more visible and accessible AEDs are, the more lives can be saved.
