Hello Canada and the World. The Canadian Association of MAiD Assessors and Providers is excited to enter the Twitterverse to support clinicians and others who serve patients and families in the delivery of Medical Assistance in Dying. #MAiD #AssistedDying @DWDCanada

"The grace of this death is that it is for Canadians who specifically and intentionally request it. Grace, I’ve learned, is in the giving – but it is also in the asking." by Konia Trouton #MAiD @DWDCanada theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

Today is a momentous day for end-of-life rights in Canada. After mths of parliamentary debate, @SenateCA has passed #BillC7! We thank all parliamentarians who listened to the voices of Cdns, and passed this compassionate bill. Final step ➡ Royal Assent. bit.ly/38qwDBP

Oh my......this is such an intimate, authentic account. Leaving Us: In Loving Memory of Aaron arielchart.com/2021/02/leavin…

2 #NPs providing uncompensated #MAiD services in @RegionNiagara region have been forced to withdraw their services d/t untenable financial & emotional stress. They provided almost 50% of service to that region @ONThealth @DWDCanada @CAMAPCanada @celliottability @CTV_AvisFavaro

Spain allowing #assisteddying for both the terminally ill and incurably suffering is becoming the global consensus. Ireland has a proposed bill with no six month limit, public opinion has shifted to support it, medical opinion has shifted towards it. bmj.com/content/372/bm…

“I don’t know what it’s like to experience the last stage of life. I don’t know the pain, I don’t know the loss, I don’t know what questions I’ll ask ... John’s story reminds me that nothing in life or death is simple." #MAiD @DWDCanada

Regarding #MAiD "no facility should be hijacked by a group with such a narrow focus. This hospice was put in place by open minded people, wanting an end-of-life facility appealing to all beliefs and religions” delta-optimist.com/local-news/del… @DWDCanada

Canadians who are suffering intolerably cannot wait any longer for the passage of Bill C-7. It is an act to amend our Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) law. @DWDCanada #cdnpoli torontoguardian.com/2021/01/bill-c…

Reminder: After several delays and extensions, the deadline for a decision on Bill C-7 is February 26, 2021. bit.ly/3i492d5

"We got to calmly say goodbye as he responded to us all. His big brother told him, “I’ll see you at the pub” and my Dad laughed and responded, “See you there.” He was at peace even before his heart stopped. I was at peace with his decision." bit.ly/2Xqlxpy

The clock is ticking & suffering continues. It's #MAiD not 'physician' assisted death. In most of 🇨🇦 MAiD is also authorized to NPs: EDITORIAL: Assisted dying bill: the perfect is the enemy of the good | The Chronicle Herald thechronicleherald.ca/opinion/local-…
