Other countries do make these decisions

Yes I know. I said nearly every other country does without it, but it is true that some countries do have similar programs.

If you read my other comment in this thread it should be clear that I think MAID due to being poor is not acceptable at all

In some ways then, you and I have very similar views. I guess one of our main differences is how much confidence we have in the current system to make it so that the poor are not disproportionately suffering as a consequence of MAiD. I don't trust our current system to do that. Our current healthcare system is already so broken, especially for the mentally ill, so there's a real danger that MAiD will be seen as a real alternative to proper healthcare. If we were in a place where we already had adequate care for people suffering from mental illnesses, then maybe we would be having a different discussion. But we are not there yet.
