"ARPA Canada urges the government to stop and reverse the expansion of MAiD. Canada already has one of the most permissive euthanasia regimes in the world. Canada has utterly failed to protect vulnerable Canadians. Instead, we have taken a fast track to devaluing the lives of the sick and disabled and to normalizing suicide as a solution to suffering."
Dear Mona Fortier,
Please read this excellent press release from ARPA, regarding expanding euthanasia to minors.
On the one hand we say we are against suicide. On the other hand, we support suicide with MAID. You can't have it both ways.
As my representative in Parliament I am asking you to not support any expansions to this deadly policy.
I am also asking that you support some real concrete, tangible, and measurable improvements to both palliative care and mental health supports for Canadians. I know people in both these categories who would greatly benefit from these improvements, especially since they are unable to get these kinds of help now. But they can get MAID.
It is both a tragedy and unethical that we allow and promote MAID instead of providing actual care to people who need it.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Patricia Maloney
Ottawa
