Yes, but only if the there is no chance to survive or cannot thrive with their illness and goes through psychological examination to access if they fully understand and accept this choice

Yes, but available viable alternates to improve quality of life must be available and provided for by the government.

In theory yes they should be given enough fentanyl or other hospice drug as requested and if an overdose happens they shouldn't be resuscitated but assisted suicide is more slippery we've seen gradual over creep where it begins for terminally ill then mentally ill now canada offers to kill you before they help you and replace social welfare with the lethal injection 1/4 of Canadians believe that poverty is a good enough reason for euthanasia instead of helping their downtrodden citizens they found a progressive way to kill the poor.

All of the above, they should be certain that there's no survivability, examined so that they're fully aware of what's happening, and they should be allowed to refuse artificial life support, however this should NEVER be advertised to people who aren't definitely terminal

 @9ZT6RYSanswered…2yrs2Y

No, because there may end up being pressure felt by terminally ill people to ease the ‘burden’ on their families and take assisted suicide

 @B57532Canswered…1yr1Y

No but I do not believe in prosecuting close family members who have assisted a love one to die with dignity unless there is a genuine belief that there was no consent i.e. suspicion of murder.

 @9ZMGKRG answered…2yrs2Y

Yes but only if there is absolute no chance of surviving their illness AND after a psychological evaluation understanding their choice
