My Death, My Decision

It has been legal for adults of sound mind with intolerable and irreversible suffering to have an assisted death in Canada since 2016.

Only 1.12% of deaths in Canada are as a result of medical assistance, and there is no evidence that the law has been abused or has harmed vulnerable people.

In fact, one study has found the exact opposite, as traditionally vulnerable demographics are less likely, than other groups, to have an assisted death under Canada’s law.
