This week, a bill proposes to widen eligibility for medical assistance in dying (MAID).
It would remove the requirement that someone's natural death be "reasonably foreseeable." This means people with serious, but non-life threatening conditions — like severe arthritis or cerebral palsy — would be able to apply.
Our question for this week: Should MAID be an option when the diagnosis isn't terminal?
