    Canadian Hospital Unveils Physician-Assisted Suicide Plan for "Sick Kids"

    -Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children recently unveiled a plan for how to terminate the lives of terminally ill kids—with or without parental consent.

    This next step for physician-assisted suicide in Canada is shocking, yet unsurprising, given international trends.

    European countries that have legalized physician-assisted suicide frequently expand the practice from the elderly or terminally ill to other populations.

    The Toronto sick kids hospital is a big deal. Children from all over the country are transferred there for specific treatments and surgeries. This is horrifying.

    I’m here in Toronto now. I’m surprised they don’t have suicide clinics yet like they do where I live in California. It has the same liberal spirit that’s for sure.
