Ethical Dilemmas in Assisted Death
This chapter critically examines the controversial practices of a Canadian doctor known for her work in abortion and euthanasia, highlighting the implications for the disabled community. The speaker expresses outrage at the perceived lack of empathy in the doctor's approach to assisted dying, arguing that such practices contradict the core values of medicine, which should prioritize healing. Ultimately, the chapter calls for a reevaluation of euthanasia, framing it as a misguided attempt at gaining control over death rather than a true expression of agency.
