Marcus Powlowski: “I absolutely believe that a compassionate society allows MAID for people with terminal illness, people that are really…”

I have to say that for the vast majority of people, it is unsuccessful, and (they) go on at some point later on to find happiness.

The option to end one’s life remains, irrespective of MAID, readily available in Canada. Furthermore, there are painless options readily available. One example being illicit narcotics like fentanyl.

Certainly I think the government should and ought to be willing at some point in the future to reconsider this.

I think the big question is, is not allowing MAID for mental illness a reasonable limitation under Section 1 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
