I hope this stuff happens in Argentina some day but things here move slower than a snail.

Proud to be Canadian!

We live on the same continent yet I was unfortunate enough to be born into Americuck land.

I'm actually kind of jealous of you, Americans. You get to buy guns and SN relatively easy. In other words, it's easier to kill myself in USA.

If we're talking about progressive politics like universal healthcare, multiculturalism, human rights, etc. Canada is better.

I could never purchase a gun though because I've been sectioned in the past and my state has protections in place that prevent the mentally ill from possessing firearms

 

[ErzsebetBATHORY]

yeah in my state too i have too many violent felonies to legally own a gun....but then again theres always the dark web .ive heard and personally seen too many horror stories from failed gunshot suicides to try that. with that, you want to shoot behind the ear. if you only shoot out the frontal lobes, all you do is give yerself a punk rock lobotomy. you can easily live, and worse, with mutant face. behold: so unless you plan on spending the rest of yer half retarded even sadder life lookin like an emoji of the toxic avenger, id suggest either bein gotdam sure yer gonna die, maybe with a mixed method as backup as well, or to try a different method altogether

 

[not-2-b-the-answer]

I'm not from Canada but even if I was I'm not even close to having dementia or anything that would qualify unless you count stupidity.

 

[Amumu]

But as usual, the rate of approval will be very low.
Canadians (just like Belgians (today ) will still need SS.
There are Belgian members on SS today who've tried and been rejected.
Imo this will be the same for Canadians, even though there is an improvement.

In my country if you jump through all the difficult hurdles of obtaining a firearm or shotgun, both are separate categories then you have an opportunity to ctb. Seems like a lot of hassle, unless you are a farmer.

We can own this though

imagine using a punt gun to ctb?
Canada is rather strongly progressive in most aspects of its politics. Some may argue this is good or bad depending on the matter at hand but I don't want to get political on here. All I can say is at least it's the step in the right direction. People shouldn't be forced to suffer on if they know things will get worse. I just don't understand how we can put a dog down when it starts defecating on the floor and it's bowels resemble a sieve that's also been hit with birdshot or even something that could be fixed like broken limbs and joints but as soon as humans start to fail and even In worse ways we just make them carry on.

I don't think these new laws upstaged Switzerland. I could give someone items and materials to help someone execute their exit, which is the literal definition of assisting suicide, and it would be completely legal here. In Switzerland, you don't have to be a doctor if you want to assist suicide, it's why Exit has volunteers. There are very few regulations in place when it comes to laws regarding assisted suicide. Here they go into details about the process, it's a paper of the University of Zürich.

You also don't need to suffer from a medical condition, in a legal sense, to have a right to assisted suicide. Exit would be completely fine to assisted literally every adult person that has the mental capacity to consent to their own exit but they don't do it because they fear social backlash and because they simply don't want to come close to violating any possible laws - sometimes selfish family members sue people that assisted suicide, as described in this article. Actually, in this particular case, the court acquitted the doctor despite them not making sure that the person that wanted to end their life was of sane mind (she suffered from a mental illness).

Swiss euthanasia doctor acquitted of murder for a second time

A doctor who helped a mentally ill woman take her life has once more been cleared of intentional homicide.

Actually, it's a very important court ruling. They simply gave them a fine for basically violating standards.

The laws in Switzerland are also the reason why the sargo device is tested in Switzerland, in a collaboration with Pegasus. Giving someone such a device would be completely legal here due to the very liberal assisted suicide laws of Switzerland. Long story short, as long as there are no selfish motives, you're allowed to help someone take their own life. It's considered an act of mercy here.

Your country is an exquisite GIFT FROM THE GODS, and I would trade my very soul just to have dual citizenship there.

Swiss law remains the most liberal. it will be a very long time before any other country can catch up with Switzerland.

only two requirements
1) person assisting suicide shouldn't have selfish motive.
2) person requesting assistance should have decision making capacity and in control of action.

Not true yet. A decision on that has been postponed for 2 more years.

 

[irememberinnocence]

Time for me to move countries lol. And even better if cough syrup is legal there. Not a suicide method but a nice legal high.
