SUPPORT THE EAG REPORT RECOMMENDATIONS
The EAG hopes to engage policy makers and raise public awareness, and we would welcome your support of the EAG report recommendations.
By completing the form below and clicking on the “I AGREE” button, you are indicating that you support the following recommendations in the February 2020 EAG report:
CORE RECOMMENDATION
MAiD policy and legislation should explicitly acknowledge that determinations of irremediability and irreversible decline cannot be made for mental illnesses at this time, and therefore applications for MAiD for the sole underlying medical condition of a mental disorder cannot fulfill MAiD eligibility requirements.
ANCILLARY RECOMMENDATION 1
A non-ambivalence criterion should be required for MAiD in situations when death is not reasonably foreseeable.
ANCILLARY RECOMMENDATION 2
A “lack of reasonable alternative” criterion should be required prior to being eligible for MAiD in situations when death is not reasonably foreseeable.
