Argument Against Euthanasia In Canada

410 Words2 Pages

Euthanasia literally means good death. However in our society euthanasia is intentionally ending a life in order to relieve suffering or pain. There are two ways to put people to death you either do it with their will or against their will. if you put someone to death against their will we usually call it murder. But if I say “I’m feeling terrible kill me” would you help me to die?.so now we have euthanasia defined and assistant suicide and all these different terms very very confusing to the public because the public generally says “if I am in great pain and I am terminally ill and I am going to die soon why can’t I accelerate or make ease of my death?”. Euthanasia should be illegal because it is basically murder. But in Canada the majority …show more content…

I understand that they are in severe pain but if you just kill/euthanize them, then you are denying them of their final stage of growth and what lesson(s) they are going to learn at the final stages of their life .Because I think that it is during a terminal and incurable illness or something that you know is going to change your life,that people actually sit down and think about the way they have lived their life, think about the wrongs that they have done, and think of how they are going to prepare themselves, their family, and loved ones for their death. Not all people make use of this opportunity, but the ones that do usually try to build up or maybe even rebuild their relationships with their loved ones, and this opportunity will somehow give them a greater purpose in life. Therefore we should recognize the importance of the patient.so in conclusion euthanasia should be illegal and you should also know that God does not give anyone more than they can handle and that life is a sacred gift that god gave us because we deserved it and even I you are not religious or you do not believe in god life is still a sacred thing that should be appreciated and not abused. Therefore euthanasia should not be legal anywhere in the

  • Explain Why Australia Should Regulate Euthanasia

    It is suggested that Euthanasia will provide 'Death with Dignitary '. I believe that every person has the right to die knowing that he or she is loved and that their doctors did everything they could to make them well and comfortable. I believe that palliative care is the best option for patients who want to die in dignity and we should instead think of ways of helping people who suffer which don 't involve encouraging them to end their lives. The Victorian Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities contains twenty basic rights, one of the rights being 'Your right to life ' where every person has the right to life and to not have their life taken. By allowing euthanasia into our country we are defying these basic rights.

    I strongly agree that Euthanasia must be legalised in Australia. People who are terminally ill are repeatedly told that they only have several months or years to live. People have the rights to choose whether they end their life with dignity and peace or choose to live a life of misery and agony. Case studies show that more than 80 percent of Australians in opinion polls say that they would like to legalise euthanasia to relieve patients from pain and distress. In 1973 the Netherlands have effectively permitted voluntary euthanasia.

  • Doctor-Assisted Suicide

    Doctor-assisted suicide, or euthanasia, can cause deaths under circumstances where the person is not mentally able to make that decision for themselves. Doctor-assisted suicide should be illegal because of how many unnecessary and unwanted deaths it has caused. Doctor-assisted suicide, or euthanasia, gives doctors too much power to kill, it also persuades powerless people to think about ending their life, and it makes patients who don 't actually want to die request it in belief that they are burdensome to the people around them. Doctors receive too much power from patients and medical facilities to assist suicide to patients with illnesses or patients who think they need to end their life in general. According to Cristian Nordqvist, euthanasia is known as "the means to take a deliberate action with the express intention of ending a life to relieve intractable suffering" (Nordqvist, Christian).

    Euthanasia Rough Draft Euthanasia has been a big topic of conversation around the United States for the past decade. There are those who are against death by medicine, and those who are for dying with dignity. Right off the back, the words death by medicine and dying with dignity sound a lot different. Those who are pro Euthanasia look at it as ending a persons suffering, and giving them a choice. People against Euthanasia look at it as either suicide or murder, and find it inhumane.

    There are real case incidents in which a 14 year old girl suffering from terminal cystic fibrosis is asking her country’s president for permission to end her life. She had self shot a video in which she says “I am tired of living this disease and she can authorize an injection through which I can sleep forever”. The girl's video has sparked a broader conversation about whether euthanasia should be legalized in the largely Catholic nation. According to me we should let euthanasia be legal as there is no significance in keeping them alive against their wish as we don’t know how much they are suffering. Another incident is where the woman moved to Oregon where euthanasia is legal to take advantage of Oregon’s death with Dignity Law.

    One of the big arguments against euthanasia is that it’s irreversible: Once the patient is gone, we’ll never know if their unexpected recovery was just around the corner, or if they might have gone on to lead full and happy lives despite their illness. However this argument is made in ignorance of the statistical data. The fact is, recovering from a terminal illness is so improbable it's like a slap to the face of reason. Combine this with the fact that euthanasia is - in most countries where it is legal, reserved for the terminally ill. The final stop before death.

    There are many forms of euthanasia. Whether it’s active or passive, voluntary or non-voluntary, most of these forms are illegal in almost every country in the world. Passive euthanasia is refusing treatment and allowing illness or injuries kill you, however active euthanasia is what I’m going to talk about today. It generally consists of injecting a lethal chemical composite dose into the bloodstream that is meant to end your life in the most painless way possible. We live in a world that has opposing viewpoints on this subject; there are those who view it as homicide, and others who view it as the most sincere form of human compassion.

  • Arguments Against Euthanasia Under A Microscope

    If a person is terminally ill and in pain, they should get to decide their own death because they do own the rights to their own life. Nobody can force a person to want to live if they really don’t want to, especially if they are suffering because they physically hurting. Also, nobody knows exactly how much pain a person if suffering from, besides that individual themselves, so nobody has the right to speak for them. In a way, euthanasia gives people back a sense of control in their life that their illness took away from them. They feel as though they have become their illness and it has taken over their body and that they no longer have control.

    The most common location for the euthanasia act is in Netherlands but also in some other locations around the world. In the Netherlands euthanasia is also allowed without a parents or guardians consent. My argument is that I am pro euthanasia just because when you put yourself in a person shoes you would understand what they been through and the suffering pain they endure every day after the cause of illness. My opinion on this topic is that if I was in this predicament I would want to be able to choose whether or not I would like to choose a quick and painless death than suffering from pain and suffering on a daily basis.    The cost for the medication or what the lethal dosing item is less than 100 dollars but the cost of a assisted suicide can cost up to 100,000 dollars just to insure proper care of the patient to help the family in grief.
