This story should give you pause ...
Four hours after a woman was released from involuntary psychiatric detention, which was triggered by a su***de attempt, she was euthanized.
Her two daughters were powerless to stop the Canadian MAiD machine that rushed their suicidal mother toward medically-assisted death. "No one should become eligible for death because appropriate care is unaffordable, unavailable locally, or subject to an impossible wait," Alicia Duncan, daughter of the woman killed by assisted su***de, stated. "A treatment has not failed if the person was never able to receive it. The healthcare system failed.”
Alicia Duncan says her mother's story is not an anomaly but the tip of the iceberg for many others who have been or would be affected by assisted dying laws.
