Our Press Review took a break over the last two weeks, as we published two Press Releases (in response to the rejection of Bill C-314 and new reports on medical assistance in dying). Now, we’re back, with a summary of the past three weeks. In addition to revisiting the topics covered in our two recent press releases, you’ll also find articles on the disconcerting eligibility for medical assistance in dying for people with substance use disorders, following the upcoming expansion of MAiD for mental disorders. Please note that the Press Review is in French and English and that we occasionally include some of our X publications (formerly on Twitter) in our Press Review to provide more context. At the end of this communication, you’ll also find links to read the Canadian Cancer Society’s Palliative Care Report, as well as the latest article by Professor Trudo Lemmens (“When Death Becomes Therapy”), and to watch the full version of Dr. Kathryn Mannix’s conference from September 19th in Montreal.
Wishing you a great end to the month of October,
