The bill takes care to exclude visitors who wish to die &#8211; the rather aptly named\u00a0&#8220;suicide tourism&#8221;. It also excludes those who are mentally incapable of making a rational decision, another logical decision.<\/p>\n<p>Under the terms of the legislation, two doctors must agree to it and there&#8217;s a 15 day &#8220;cooling off&#8221; period after you&#8217;ve requested it to change your mind&#8230; That&#8217;s how I read it, the wording is obviously not that but it does read very much like a &#8220;15 day cancellation policy that does not affect your statutory rights&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>On the topic, Trudeau said\u00a0&#8220;It&#8217;s a deeply personal issue that affects all of us and our families and all of us individually as we approach the end of our lives [&#8230;] The plan we have put forward is one that respects Canadians&#8217; choices while putting in place the kinds of safeguards needed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Personally I am for assisted suicide. If I ended up with a terminal illness that was just going to get worse over time and I was going to spend the next 3 months in increasing pain I&#8217;d prefer to go out my own way. Sadly I live in the UK and with people like David Cameron in charge, I&#8217;ve got more chance of my tax rate doubling than this ever becoming legal here.<br \/>\n<small>Featured image from <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Justin_Trudeau\">Wikipedia<\/a>.<br \/>\nImage of the supreme court from <a href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/User:Themightyquill\">Themightyquill, Wikimedia<\/a><\/small><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In what will surely spark controversy and complaints around the world, Canada has just become the latest country to allow assisted suicide from a doctor for those who are terminally ill or in severe pain and will be for the rest of their lives.
