A homeless man refuses long-term care, a woman with severe obesity, and an injured worker with meager assistance have requested euthanasia, igniting debate among healthcare workers about ethics.
Canada continues to push the boundaries of euthanasia, allowing those in unmanageable pain but not terminally ill to seek death, raising ethical and social acceptability concerns.
Internal data from Ontario indicates many euthanized individuals come from impoverished areas, raising alarms about the intersection of socioeconomic status and the choice of euthanasia.
The expansion of Canada's euthanasia laws is being closely watched globally, as countries like Britain and France consider similar legislation amid growing public support.
