#289 What’s wrong with MAiD? A slippery slope 🗓
19 March, 14:00 UTC+0
CMDA Canada’s Executive Director, Larry Worthen, will provide timely information on euthanasia and assisted suicide (euphemistically called MAiD) in Canada. This will include discussion of regulatory policies, the impact on vulnerable Canadians, and how CMDA Canada is helping Canadian Christians to embrace Christ’s plan for life and death.
Larry will deconstruct global narratives that dismiss the value of human life and propose instead the need for compassionate end of life care. It is hoped that Canada’s unfortunate experience will help other nations immunize themselves against this destructive practice infecting medical care around the world.
