Cyclist rides through Winnipeg on organ donation journey -- CBC News

An Ontario cyclist made a stop in Winnipeg over the weekend as part of his cross-country trek to raise awareness of the importance of organ donations.

Cayse Ruiter, 26, says he hopes Canadians will sign up as organ donors once he shares his own story.

His friend, Matthew Antolin, died in December at the age of 27 while waiting for a heart transplant.
