  1. Can't bear Trudeau and normally agree with Murray, but not here. Subject to proper and rigorous judicial and medical checks and balances anyone who wishes to end their life legally, peacefully and assisted by the state should be allowed to do so. .

  2.  @chrisruss9861  Yeah, I heard that one. They changed their mind halfway down apparently.

  3. You can't conflate capital punishment with assisted dying FFS as Murray disingenuously attempts to do here. Bit early for the silly season, so maybe it's just a case of writer's block but asking the state to assist with your voluntary demise is not the same thing as the state insisting on your demise.

  5.  @boudecia22  Those of us who are able and willing all make a living will defining in which circumstances we might wish to see our lives ended. If you don't, then you don't make one. It's that simple. Much like the organ donor scheme it's an opt in job not an opt out one. We would obviously be able to renounce that wish at anytime if deemed mentally capable of doing so and any decision to proceed would have to be assessed and agreed to by two doctors and ultimately signed off by a judge who would specialise in making these decisions.

  6.  @familycompactthegrange7014  If you're not comfortable with them or their limitations then don't make one. Simple.

  7. Agree with almost all of that. Trudeau is still a dangerous tool though.

  8.  @chrisruss9861  Suicide is no way the same thing as state assisted death. Had that suicidal young man approached 'the state' and said I wish to die and for you to assist me in that because my girlfriend's just left me, are you seriously suggesting that this would come to pass under an Assisted Dying Bill?

  9.  @margarita8416  Not sure I can make sense of that. Fancy clarifying.

  10. Had a word. She'll brush her hair but only if you brush up on 'you're' spelling.

  11. Assisted dying, much like incarceration, funerals, healthcare, cancer and palliative care etc would simply become monetized like everything else, so what's with all the pearl clutching?
