The Panel has also announced its intention to continue a passive approach to consultation during the election period.

We need to give people options for life rather than the choice of death.<\/li>\n<li>We must improve suicide prevention programmes, for everyone, at any time.<\/li>\n<li>We must ensure the wording is clear. For example, don&#8217;t use euphemisms such as &#8220;medical aid in dying&#8221; instead of &#8220;euthanasia&#8221;.<\/li>\n<li>We must protect vulnerable individuals (and we could all become vulnerable).<\/li>\n<li>Assisted suicide and euthanasia are not medical acts, and should never been seen as such.<\/li>\n<li>Assisted suicide and euthanasia are incompatible with palliative care.<\/li>\n<li>We must protect medical all health workers&#8217; freedom of conscience.<\/li>\n<li>No law allowing assisted suicide or euthanasia can protect everyone in all situations, even if strong safeguards are established.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>To formally submit your point of view, use the Panel document upload page: <a href=\"http:\/\/ep-ce.ca\/en\/document-submission\/\">http:\/\/ep-ce.ca\/en\/document-submission\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Thank you for all your efforts on this important topic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The External Panel on Options for a Legislative Response to Carter v.
