Looking for a cure?
#LizCarr has stepped away from acting to advocate against the legalization of assisted suicide. Her latest #documentary, "Better Off Dead?", explores the implications of such laws, focusing on how they endanger disabled individuals.
Travelling to Canada, Carr investigates the effects of permissive assisted suicide laws. There not only the terminally ill can opt for a medically assisted death. This practice is even extended to those facing social deprivation, presenting a grave ethical dilemma.
In Britain, Carr meets with staunch opponents, including Baroness Jane Campbell, who shares a personal story of having a ‘Do Not Resuscitate’ order placed on her without consent.

This week, @xtinadlr writes about endings. Appropriate for the end of the year, but a heavy topic nonetheless. How can we work towards better endings, for ourselves and for others? What can we do to support people through the ends of their existences? How can we begin to think through this thorny moral issue?

Things are going very, very wrong with MaID in Canada. MaID should never be “offered.” MaID is not a cost-saving measure for an underfunded health system. MaID is not an alternative to providing needed medical and social support. Implementing MaID in a setting where other human rights are replaced with a right to die is a slow motion disaster. #bioethics #MedicalEthics #assisteddeath #ableism https://nationalpost.com/opinion/our-veterans-ask-for-help-theyre-offered-assisted-death
