Euthanasia is now the fifth leading cause of death in Canada

from The Daily Article · host The Denison Forum

Canada recently released its updated statistics for how many people died last year from physician-assisted suicide, and the numbers continue an alarming trend. Canada is by no means the only country with legal euthanasia, but it is the country where the greatest number of people have chosen to end their lives through some form of physician-assisted suicide. Why do assisted suicide laws seem to be growing in popularity? And what steps, if any, are being taken to guard against abuses? A telling answer to both questions is found in the UK’s move to pass similar legislation, though with one key difference that speaks to a principle that applies to all of our sin natures. About Denison Forum and The Daily ArticleToday's Daily Article was written by Dr. Ryan Denison and narrated by Chris Elkins.
