The thing that pisses me off here is simple to explain.
Make it law that you MUST provide a blood sample for the DNA database, and
the first time you are seeing your doctor, or in the hospital they have you.
It doesn't matter a bit if you don't agree, or refuse, or protest. It's the
law.

In Nova Scotia every government office can refuse you service if you owe the
province money. Case in point, the department of motor vehicles. If you have
an outstanding fine, for any reason, the DMV can refuse to register a
vehicle, re-register a vehicle, or renew your drivers license.

So, in that vein if you want medical services, you MUST comply. You provide
a sample, or walk out with a broken leg, or rib, or whatever.
Best of luck to you.
