Dr Sue Hughson - Dying With Dignity Canada

Dr Sue Hughson, Dying With Dignity Canada Board Member and Vancouver Chapter Coordinator and BC Humanist Association Past President, talks about the status of the fight for the right to die with dignity in Canada. This talk, recorded on Sunday, June 5, 2016, was one day before the Supreme Court of Canada's Carter v Canada decision came into effect, striking down the criminal prohibition on assisted dying and allowing physicians to help a suffering patient hasten their death. Sue also talks about issues with Bill C-14 as passed by the House of Commons.
