Participants discussing their opinions at FoMSF UBC’s event, ‘Is Assisted Suicide Justified?’

 

The participants were divided into three groups representing the doctors who are in favour of euthanasia, family members of the patient requesting euthanasia, and the pro-life group against euthanasia.
The discussion brought up several abstruse topics such as, the importance of human life, and the protection of free will.
