A comment on Canada euthanasia now accounts for nearly one in 20 deaths. Parent comment
Personally I don’t think they should. Only I know what’s in my head.
I think my rules would be:
1. Terminal diagnosis at any age - No questions asked.
2. Over 70 - No questions asked — just request MAID and get it.
3. Over 50 but under 70 - Have to request MAID 2 times, separated by 1 month waiting period. Waiting period resets after a year.
4. Under 50 - Have to request MAID 3 times, each separated by 1 month waiting period. Waiting period resets after 6 months.
I’d also be in favor of no questions asked at all in any situation.
