When the Supreme Court decreed that euthanasia was permitted by Canada’s charter of human rights, it launched the country into deep waters. If medical journals are already advertising how much money could be saved if people choose euthanasia, how much incentive will the government have to create a better palliative care system?No one is saying the economic consequences are not considerable, but obviously, that one line item should not drive the debate.
My personal feeling is that...
..Canadian euthanasia legislation was long overdue... but obviously there's many more facets to that conversation...
