Canada has expanded its Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) program to include children and teenagers. A Special Joint Committee on Medical Assistance in Dying submitted a report to the House of Commons in February 2023 that recommended the government begin extending MAID services to “mature minors” WITHOUT parental authorization.

Common law dictates that a “mature minor” is a person under 18 years of age who is deemed competent to make informed decisions about their own healthcare. There is no set age for which...

Delaware Democrat Gov. Matt Meyer signed a bill on Tuesday legalizing physician-assisted suicide for terminally ill patients given six months or less to live. Meyers claimed the measure, called the End-of-Life Options Act, is about “compassion, dignity, and respect for personal choice.” The bill, which will take effect next year, allows those patients to request a prescription to self-administer and end their lives, Fox News Digital reported. “We’re acknowledging today that even in the last moments of life, compassion matters,” Meyer said at the bill signing. “Every Delawarean should have the right to face their final chapter with peace, dignity,...

The Nevada Legislature has defeated a controversial bill that would have legalized assisted suicide, a decision hailed by pro-life advocates as a victory for the sanctity of life and protections for the vulnerable. Assembly Bill 346, which sought to allow terminally ill patients over 18 to request life-ending medication under specific conditions, failed to advance past a critical committee deadline on Friday, effectively ending its chances in the 2025 legislative session. The bill’s sponsor, Assemblymember Joe Dalia, D-Clark County, cited insufficient Senate support and a promised veto from Republican Gov. Joe Lombardo as key reasons for the measure’s demise. This...

Recently, a video clip from 2022 resurfaced on social media of Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar standing in front of the flag of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan claiming that “change is coming” and forthrightly calling for...

The state Assembly, following nearly five hours of emotional debate, passed the controversial “Medical Aid in Dying Act” 81-67, with around 20 Democrats breaking ranks to oppose the controversial measure. “Each and every life has value,” Assemblywoman Mary Beth Walsh (R-Saratoga), one of the legislation’s opponents, said on the Assembly floor. “Progress may not be on a straight line and will look different to each of us, but this idea of giving up and dying is not excelsior, ever upward.
