I think any adult of sound mind who has good reason should be allowed to acquire drugs that bring upon death.
"Of sound mind" and "good reasons" are subjective, though.
I would never want to make that decision in either direction for anyone else, and I don't think the government should be involved. I see it as a private matter between a patient, their doctors (should absolutely be required to see a psychiatrist as well as medical doctors), and their god. Will some people manage to convince their doctors they should be given the drugs despite not being of sound mind and/or not having a "good" reason? Yes, probably. But that doesn't mean I think the government needs to step in and say that dying cancer patients (or whatever) shouldn't have the right in certain states.
Should have started a poll, OP. I support euthanasia, should a person desire this outcome. In fact, I support assisted suicide, and people ending their lives for whatever reason they desire.
Why should a person be forced to live? Life on this planet, as this species, isn't for everyone. There's lots of irrational emotional urges and drives that are rather obnoxious. I get it... people who are happy with their lives can't imagine people who aren't happy, but having been on both sides of the aisle, I'm rather neutral towards the topic.
Disturbing indeed, and even more frightening because most Canadian hospitals have become so highly politicized by Canada's extremist socialist government. Staff 'encourage' people to sign agreements to be euthanasized by the hospital's decision. Sign it when you are in a fog of pain, and you've agreed to be euthanized and you or your family may not even realize when it's going to happen. You might be doing better, but if you've signed that consent form, they don't have to check you again or consider the idea of "First, do no harm." It requires a tedious court order to un-do the the agreement.
Hopefully there are a few honorable doctors and nurses who are outraged at Nazi-style eugenics applied in Canadian hospitals.
Justin Trudeau is a gaslit creep.
Wow.
Extremist Socialist government LOL
The rest of your post shows you don't know how healthcare works in Canada, beside the fact that you think Canadians would put up with " Nazi-style eugenics applied in Canadian hospitals."

Rather than criticize, why not clarify your stand on this? Maybe the media constantly misreports "events" in Canada?
"Assisted suicide"? Isn't that an oxymoron? Unless someone is truly incapacitated by their illness, I think they can figure out killing themselves without "assistance".
I have read that the healthcare system in Canada is overwhelmed, so maybe this is the answer they are looking for. Socialism is nothing I want anything to do with, so I hope it doesn't bleed over the border into our country!
The ultimate soy boy, Justin T. needs to lead by example. Step on up, J.T. and show fellow Canadians that the practice is safe and effective.
I'll always detest Trudeau for the way they treated those Canadian truckers was just awful.
