Anti-Am Posted June 15, 2012 Report Posted June 15, 2012 I know this will end up in the supreme court probably 2014, hopefully its legalized by then. http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/mobileweb/2012/06/14/doctor-assisted-suicide-bc-supreme-court_n_1598484.html VANCOUVER - A group challenging Canada's laws against doctor-assisted suicide is expected to get an answer Friday from the B.C. Supreme Court. The B.C. Civil Liberties Association is leading the charge for the group, including Gloria Taylor, who wants the court to strike down the law that bans such suicides as her health fades because of ALS, or Lou Gehrig's disease. Grace Pastine, the association's litigation director, said Taylor simply wants the option of asking for such a death. "That is not to say that Gloria is ready to die — she's not," Pastine said in an interview. "That will make her life now more comfortable and will give her great piece of mind." Quote
Topaz Posted June 15, 2012 Report Posted June 15, 2012 Most of us know that one of the ten commandments is "Thou shall not kill" but man has broken this over and over down through the centuries but I can't imagine a God that would want a person to suffer with pain or just "exist" with some brain disease. Therefore having watched people die of cancer and brain disease which there wasn't anyway to cure, I'm all for this law. What good is life is one is in a bed waiting to die and besides, it too dam hard on the loves ones surviving! Quote
Anti-Am Posted June 15, 2012 Author Report Posted June 15, 2012 F*** the 10 commandments. Most people violate at the least, half of them every single day. Quote

Before you came along, we sat here with mouths agape, speaking occasionally about Prime Minister Joe Clark.

Eventually we came onside on Haiti, so we got another arrow in our quiver." --Bill Graham, Former Canadian Foreign Minister, 2007
