Laws promoting death???
We hear a lot about controversial laws enabling the destruction of unborn babies, but now laws enabling the killing of disabled and sick adults are being enacted and pushed.

Some say that article is biased. Is the word "coerced" too strong, the bill does not coerced, but encourages to offer these services, and not deny them when wanted by patients.
The amendment to offer assisted death to people with mental problems in Bill C-7 is not yet passed, but its getting close.

Some critics argue medical professionals are being pressured to promote MAID because suicide is cheaper than having to provide care under Canada?s publicly funded medical system. A group of 1,502 Canadian doctors, including medical professors and specialists, calling themselves Physicians Together with Vulnerable Canadians (PTVC), have publicly expressed their concerns about the situation on their website:
