Canada Must Choose Compassion Without Abandoning Life
Canada should never become a country where assisted death is more accessible than the care necessary to continue living.
Protecting human life while respecting dignity and freedom are serious government responsibilities, especially concerning Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID). The author believes Canada must remain compassionate, but compassion should not be an excuse to abandon those who suffer. This perspective is rooted in the conviction that human life has inherent dignity, irrespective of age, disability, illness, or economic status.
