Lockdown too much? Medically assisted suicide is your solution - uofmcamaro - 11-29-2020 01:37 PM
90 yr old healthy Canadian chooses death over lockdown
I’m not advocating for or against medically assisted suicide...torn on my thoughts on it. However, there’s a huge difference in doing so because of stage 4 cancer vs depression from a 2 week lockdown.

I'm just wondering why in the world did her family not just say "come live with us during the lockdown"...
I mean if the choice is certain death (suicide) or a risk of it (from living with loved ones) why not say "Grandma, come live with us for a month we will do all the mask/distance/handwashing we can"

I don’t know a ton about Canada so I’m just asking this as a question. Per their healthcare system could that even be done? Like, would it be allowed by the government?

From the article, it sounds like it if you get Dr approval. The first Dr she went to denied the request.
