Here is the heavy and sad Belgian reality for the ill and end-of-life people taken hostage by a heavily bureaucratic system. After 10 years of applying the law on euthanasia, confusion still reigns, the lack of information is blatant, the application of the law permitting for euthanasia is complicated and the boundaries are impossible to control as the article below clearly demonstrates.
We have to come to the conclusion that the experience of 10 years of euthanasia in Belgium shows that "the boundaries are impossible to control and that they are falling, one after the other," affirms professor Étienne Montero, dean of the faculty of law at the University of Namur. The respect of the conditions is impossible to control."
In the Quebec context of lack of health workforce and in taking under account cutbacks in funding, how can Quebec presume to be able to outperform Belgium regarding these questions?
