This is a Trojan horse. The Liberals plan to bundle the mental illness exclusion with advance requests for MAiD in one bill. No separate votes. MPs must accept both or reject both. Sneaky politics with irreversible consequences. Shame on the Liberals. Canada, wake up.
Canada plans to halt euthanasia for mental illness while expanding access through advance requests for people with dementia.
The proposal raises serious concerns about consent, disability rights, and UN warnings. Read our response.

We're grateful for the bipartisan resolution submitted opposing the legalization of assisted suicide.
We are hopeful for more work across the aisle in our government to see the end of these dangerous laws!

The role of medicine is healing, and yet society is trying to rebrand assisted suicide as compassionate healthcare.
Watch this latest video from @AgingwDignity on the history of how our healthcare system became this broken.

This speech by @AshleyDalton_MP is extraordinary powerful and covers many of the most important reasons to oppose assisted suicide.
We're grateful the UK Parliament voted against this bill, and we hope many will watch this speech and understand the dangers of assisted suicide.
We're so grateful that once again, MPs voted to prevent assisted suicide in the UK!

This Act is meant to protect people with disabilities, and assisted suicide laws do the exact opposite - they put vulnerable people at risk of deadly harm.
That’s why we fight these laws every day - to protect the rights given by the ADA & the constitution.
Today we join with disability rights organizations in signing a letter to George Clooney decrying his involvement in an upcoming movie which "portrays death as an acceptable or dignified response to disability."

"Adding this so-called ‘choice’ to a dysfunctional healthcare system run by an inept government on the brink of bankruptcy will inevitably push people toward cheaper, lethal options."

🚨NEW VIDEO: Is the slippery slope of assisted suicide imaginary, or a deadly reality?

"Let us reform our health care system to surround dying patients with truth, dignity, and real support, rather than offering them an exit ramp disguised as compassion."
Read this from former Massachusetts governor, Jane Swift.

Several advocates participated in a!demonstration in Boston standing up for the rights of those with disabilities to not be coerced to death.
Suicide is NOT medical treatment!

🚨 BREAKING: We have filed lawsuits in New York and Illinois challenging assisted suicide laws.
People with disabilities deserve equal protection under the law, not a two-tiered system that treats some suicides as tragedies and others as solutions.

Our Executive Director is at the UN today, asking Canadian officials what they’ve done since UN experts concluded Canada’s Track 2 euthanasia regime violates the rights of persons with disabilities. The recommendation was clear: repeal Track 2 and come into compliance.
"Assisted suicide, where it is legalized, deprives many of a truly dignified death and deprives loved ones of the opportunity to be there for their loved one during their last days and hours."

"It’s not uncommon for people of different political persuasions to disagree with legalizing assisted suicide, but it’s more unusual for them to actively work together to stop it."
Great write-up on our friends at @2ndThoughtsCT & their work!

"They promised us guardrails, transparency, and accountability; we’re still waiting for transparency and accountability, and the longer we wait, the more guardrails are torn down."

The UK bill to establish assisted suicide has officially died in Parliament, ensuring vulnerable patients will not be coerced toward death.
UK advocates worked fervently to prevent this law from going forward, and their efforts were not in vain!

Relieved the assisted suicide bill has run out of time in the Lords
Pro campaigners are spinning scrutiny as a lack of democracy
So, is democracy:
The PM making a promise to a TV personality?
No mention of it in the manifesto?
A biased Commons committee loaded with proponents?
