Animal Blood Bank Celebrates 15 Years

It is the primary national supplier of animal blood products in Canada, providing over 1,800 units annually to veterinarians in every province.
The CABB is headquartered at Red River College's Notre Dame Campus, with a satellite collection site at NAIT in Edmonton, Alberta.
