CANADA'S BISHOPS MAKE A CALL FOR ACTION

February 23, 2021

"It's my Mom. Don't take her away."

This quote is from a heartbreaking scene from the film Fatal Flaws, uttered by an adult woman who's mother was slated for "MAID".

Our Metropolitan Lawrence, together with the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops is asking that everyone make an appeal to their Member of Parliament.

WE ALL CAN AND NEED TO TAKE SOME ACTION REGARDING BILL C-7

The message from the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops, reads... "As you know, the Senate has amended Bill C-7. If these amendments pass the House of Commons, it will make it much easier for vulnerable Canadians to access assisted suicide and euthanasia. The most concerning amendments are:

1. Allowing people to write advance directives that require euthanasia to be administered if they are sick or disabled and lose the ability to make their own medical decisions.

2. Removing the restriction on euthanasia for people whose primary diagnosis is mental illness. This change will automatically come in to effect 18 months after the Bill is passed.

The Senate's amendments will soon be sent back to the House of Commons for approval.

Write to your MP today, before the sun goes down! Ask your MP to reject the Senate's amendments. The organization Coalition for Healthcare and Conscience, found at: www.canadiansforconscience.ca which makes such contacting your MP much easier.

Please pray about this and act NOW. In this case, delaying your action will in fact make it "too late".
