This is absolutely not ethical??? What happened Canada

End-of-life care
Medical assistance in dying Canada,
People who have mental illness can be assisted with dying,

Those who can help provide medical assistance in dying include:

pharmacists
family members or other people that you ask to help
health care providers who help physicians or nurse practitioners
These people can assist in the process without being charged under criminal law.

If they wont be charged , Can't someone just kill a mentally ill person and get away with it if they won't be charged?????

Read how it works before saying it is unethical. https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/medical-assistance-dying.html#a3

And while the U.S. isn't there yet, we have any number of ways in deciding how end of life happens.

@Ontheroad Thank you! clarity would be nice 😆 I’m trying to understand how someone is telling me assisted suicide is genocide.

@SW-User some people think anything different than the way they think must be some crazy ass plot by someone/some group or government to somehow destroy mankind! It's called fear of anything not me and maybe the most dangerous and insidious thing going on today.
@Ontheroad California is one of perhaps five states that has implemented an "End of Life Option" law for terminally ill patients, but I believe these laws only apply to physical illness.
