    Abstract

    In extending medical assistance in dying to persons with disabilities whose deaths are not reasonably foreseeable, the amended MAID bill exposes the shallowness of Canada’s commitment to the human rights of persons with disabilities. We urge MPs to reflect where Bill C-7 would lead us with state-supported medical termination of life for those not already dying.
