Canadian Bishops oppose euthanasia in Catholic Health Facilities

Summary

The Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB) issued a statement on the Catholic community's stance on MAiD, in light of broad expansion in Canada: "Despite the pressure being applied to Catholic healthcare institutions by some Canadians and Canadian organizations to perform, or to provide through a third-party, 'Medical Assistance in Dying/MAiD,' in other words euthanasia or assisted suicide, the Catholic Church, which regards life as sacred and inviolable, remains firm in its opposition to MAiD."
