Assisted Suicide in Canada: Travis Dumsday
Richard and Dan are joined by Professor Travis Dumsday of Concordia University of Edmonton in a wide-ranging discussion about his book, Assisted Suicide in Canada: Moral, Legal and Policy Considerations. The book takes on the very complicated legal, moral, philosophical and ethical issues surrounding medical assistance in dying, particularly in Canada. Travis discusses the legal cases leading to Parliament's decision to legalize assisted suicide, the ethical quandaries provoked by that decision and where it may lead to. We hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we did.
