Motion urging the federal government to finance & export abortion
Quebec MNAs unanimously condemned a moderately pro-life policy decision made by the Harper government to refuse financing abortion in third world countries. The National Assembly motion, passed 109-0 and read: “That [Quebec’s] National Assembly reaffirms the right of women to free choice and to free and accessible abortion services, and asks the federal government and the Prime Minister of Canada to put an end to the current ambiguity on this issue, and that the National Assembly reaffirms that the fact of supporting women’s right to an abortion should not in any case be used by the federal government to cut funding to a women’s group.” [May 19, 2010]
Yes bad
Bill 52, second reading, To legalize euthanasia and give doctors the power to kill their patients
This dangerous bill violates the Criminal Code of Canada by attempting to legalize the form of homicide known as euthanasia. The Parti Quebecois used verbal gymnastics and euphemism to describe as "health care" an action by a doctor to end the life of his patient. This dangerous, unlawful bill targets the elderly and disabled persons who will face internal and external pressure to consider euthanasia. In essence it will create a 'duty to die' in the minds of many Quebecers. The bill passed 2nd reading vote 84 to 26.
Yes bad
Bill 52, final reading, To legalize euthanasia giving doctors the power to kill their patients
This dangerous bill violates the Criminal Code of Canada by attempting to legalize the form of homicide known as euthanasia. The Parti Quebecois used verbal gymnastics and euphemism to describe as "health care" an action by a doctor to end the life of his patient. This dangerous, unlawful bill targets the elderly and disabled persons who will face internal and external pressure to consider euthanasia. In essence it will create a 'duty to die' in the minds of many Quebecers. On June 5, 2014, the bill passed 3rd reading by a vote of 94 to 22 with no abstentions. Now it falls on the federal government to block Quebec's unlawful action.
Yes bad
