But don’t tell that to so-called journalists, who are busily about the task of badly misstating what the proposal would permit. I mentioned a Toronto Star example [...]

A bill to legalize euthanasia in Quebec has been filed, and it is a radical disaster. First, it would require that all “institutions,” e.g., hospitals, nursing homes, and residential care facilities “provide” terminal sedation (put into a coma and dehydrated to death) or euthanasia, which are included in the bill’s definition of the term, “end [...]
