For the first time, the annual report delved into race and ethnic data of those who underwent assisted dying.

Also, potentially hundreds were done illegally. https://www.ctvnews.ca/health/here-s-why-critics-believe-hundreds-of-medically-assisted-deaths-shouldn-t-have-happened-1.7146483 https://www.lifenews.com/2024/12/16/canada-may-have-illegally-euthanized-622-people/

      Because the lefties voted for it saying it wouldn’t be abused, and here it is, being abused.

        The article mentions two or three anecdotes that were clear failures, but I haven’t seen studies showing a systemic problem. Do you have evidence of that?

          This sub isn’t strictly about systemic issues, this sub is about anecdotes.

          Although this is run by the govt, so by definition it’s systemic. In any case, there hasn’t been a study (afaik), so we have no idea just how widespread the abuse is

            Median age being 77 objectively means there isnt widespread abuse. That’s about the life expectancy of Canada.
