Bill C-314 would exclude a mental disorder from being considered a grievous and irremediable medical condition for the purposes of Medical Assistance in Dying. This would mean that no one would be eligible for MAID for mental illness alone
MP Ed Fast introduced Bill C-314 in the House of Commons on February 10, 2023. Its first hour of debate in the House of Commons was set for May 18. Please pray for MPs to support this bill and ask your MP to do so.
