Also in the UK, Jersey (technically not part of the UK has legalised it, so has Scotland, except it falls foul of non-devolved issues so Scotland rnment to pass legislation.can't actually proceed. It is being considered in England, but may not be a priority issue for the current government to pass legislation. It is legal in some Australian states.A big topic of discussion in Canada right now:
Opinion: How Canada’s MAiD laws could become even worse
A new paper argues that people approved for MAiD should be able to die by means of organ donation.
My bad; wasn't sure where to put it.
Sorry, but the wording sounds darkly comical. I assume that this was requested by the father at some point…
Yes, he insisted. I mean in terms of the process, it couldn't have gone any better despite the unpleasant nature.
For certain definitions of worse. The biased views of the American religious right are quite unlikely to have any impact on Canadian medical issues.A big topic of discussion in Canada right now:

I am not sure of the law in Canada. This would not be legal in Australia where the patient has to self administer the euthanasing drugs. (That doesn't mean there can't be the after death donation, just not the before death donation.) This model can only work where the law allows a third party to administer the euthanasia, not where it has to be self administered.A big topic of discussion in Canada right now:

Being discussed is a good thing. So are rational opposing views. Canada is not devoid of religious right with irrational views, unfortunatelyThis is closer to the actualities:

A bit of topic drift. The discussion is about MAID for people with psychiatric problems.
That (psychiatric issues) isn't in the title, where do you get that from? It would seem reasonable that people with psychiatric issues and terminal cancer should have the same access too euthanasia as those in the same position without psychiatric problems.
Which discussion? Neither of your links in this thread reference psychiatric issues,
Thanks for that, I meant to do some research but got distracted over the weekend.This is closer to the actualities:

That's the thing I've never understood. Sure, euthanasia should always be guided and discussed with several doctors and maybe a counselor, but why would you need to have psychiatric issues to be eligible?
You don't; it's just the opposite...being much more guarded about allowing someone with issues to do this as it can be the mental health issues that are driving an irrational decision.
Because it's not nearly that simple. The devil's in the details. Also they aren't being forced to live, it's just that they aren't going to get help in dying just because they say they feel like dying. One can if sufficiently motivated commit suicide without medical assistance.
