ALEX SCHADENBERG: BC SUPRME COURT DECISION TO LEGALIZE ASSISTED SUICIDE & EUTHANASIA, A RECIPE FOR ELDER ABUSE THAT THREATHENS THE SAFETY, SECURITY AND EQUALITY OF CANADIANS.: The BC Supreme Court released its decision in Carter v. AG Canada today. It carves exceptions into the laws allowing Assisted Suicide and Euthanasia in Canada.
The Federal Parliament of Canada recently considered legalization of Assisted Suicide and Euthanasia in a bill that came before the House in 2010. Bill C-384 was overwhelmingly defeated based upon concerns related to the prospect of the abuse of seniors, people with disabilities, the lack of an effective national suicide prevention strategy, and the lack of access to good palliative care in Canada.
