Subject: Re: The Affordability Tour Kicks Off
So what does the recent surge in euthanasia laws and practices in Canada and Europe indicate to you?
It doesn’t indicate that either Canada or Europe is encouraging people to off themselves.
The push for such laws is often led by those with terminal diseases.
Among the terminally ill, this issue is often seen as a guarantor of freedom- freedom to either continue life, or end it on their.
If I ever face a terminal diagnosis (other than the one that everyone has by virtue of currently being alive) I will most likely NOT avail myself of the option. But I will be glad that it is there if circumstances (pain/cost) become unbearable… even if I never use it.
Freedom of choice. It really is a thing.
