In this episode of Finding Common Battle Grounds, Ryan, Josh, and Tom are joined by Jake and Hunter. We discuss Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD), Canada's program that allows people who meet specific criteria to have the help of a physician to end their lives. Josh is adamantly opposed to this and is unwilling to budge at all, even in pretty obvious cases, like if someone is very old, has a terminal diagnosis, and is going to spend their remaining few months in excruciating pain. The rest of the panelists fall on a spectrum, from Ryan, who fully embraces this (closely followed by Jake), to Hunter and Tom, who don't love it, but respect people's autonomy. Josh brings up gray cases to criticize the practice, which is useful to show that any policy can be problematic. Intriguingly, some panelists suggest their real concern is that it is a government program, and that they would trust it more if it were privatized, you know, like a big-box wholesaler!
