2022 was a year of both victories, defeats, and changes. The most important victory was the Massachusetts Judicial Supreme Court deciding that there is no right to assisted suicide in the Massachusetts state Constitution. Possibly the saddest defeat was in Oregon which agreed to remove its assisted suicide residency requirement, essentially extending assisted suicide nationally in the US. In fact that, after passing Bill C- 7 in March 2021, Canadians with disabilities are being killed by (MAiD) euthanasia because of poverty, homelessness, and an inability to obtain necessary medical care. The stories related to euthanasia for disabled Canadians, veterans with PTSD and people who are unable to access proper care resulted in the government delaying the implementation of euthanasia for mental illness.
