The website for the expert panel on assisted suicide and euthanasia is now public. They announce several upcoming consultation methods which will be made available soon. We urge you to go on the site and leave your details to receive the relevant information once these consultation methods are made available.
Important links:
- Consultation site: http://ep-ce.ca/en/home
- To receive notifications about the consultation: http://ep-ce.ca/en/home/#email_signup
The site advises that the consultations will target 4 fundamental questions:
- Different forms of physician-assisted dying (assisted suicide and/or voluntary euthanasia);
- Eligibility criteria and definition of key terms;
- Risks to individuals and society associated with physician-assisted dying; and
- Safeguards to address risks and procedures for assessing requests for assistance in dying and the protection of physicians’ freedom of conscience.
It is extremely important that as many people as possible participate in these consultations and present the view point opposed to assisted suicide and euthanasia. Living with dignity and the Physicians’ Alliance against euthanasia will provide input, however the public voice, your voice, must also be heard.
Thank you for your continued efforts in this fight, which is so important for society.
