I misread this, and if that was a "legitimate" DNA test that might be the difference.

its a complex issue.
Bill S-201 currently protects against genetic discrimination at a number of levels (its not just an insurance discrimination bill) but is being challenged in the supreme court (mostly due to the latter issue, and there is a reasonable chance the challenge will go through I think as there are provincial jurisdiction issues at play)
at any rate, its easy to wonder at times whether Senators serve any useful purpose but Senator James Cowan was a tremendous champion of this bill
