Subject: <\/strong>Re: Proposed Changes to MAID That affect the most vulnerable<\/p>\n

Hi Friends, I am writing to you as a board member of L’ARche Winnipeg, and a concerned citizen with respect to changes to Maid which are contained in Bill C-7.\u00a0 If you click on the first url, you can access the proposed legislation; click the second url and you will come to a letter you can send to government in regard to changes being proposed that can potentially affect the lives of people living with intellectual and physical disabilities who are very vulnerable to persuasion.\u00a0 Please read below and consider adding your name to other concerned citizens of Canada.\u00a0 I have also pasted a brief note from L’Arche; this will not cost you much time and might be of life-saving benefit to those who depend so much on the good will and love of their neighbour!\u00a0 Imagine how precarious life is for those at the mercy of others.\u00a0 Please forward to others.\u00a0 Thanks for your time and consideration.\u00a0 Nancy<\/p>\n

Speak out. Champion Equality. Share your Story. Change the Conversation.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re calling for MAiD to be restricted to end of life circumstances. Bill C-7 would allow for people who have a disability to die when they are suffering without first addressing the reasons for their suffering and the challenges they face in attaining a good quality of life. This is not how we respond to the suffering of any other group of Canadians, much less any other Charter protected group.<\/p>\n
