Dear Friends,
Given the recent controversy surrounding Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) and how it pertains to religious communities, B’nai Brith Canada’s League for Human Rights is hosting an important Town Hall meeting to discuss the effects of this issue on medical professionals, patients, families, and friends.
All are welcome to attend.
Where: B’nai Brith Canada Headquarters at 15 Hove Street, Toronto
When: Wednesday, March 29, 2017 starting at 8:00 p.m.
Featuring presentations from legal experts, physicians, and human rights professionals, the meeting will give attendees the opportunity to share their thoughts and experiences on MAID, and to hear the latest updates in the courts and the Ontario legislature.
The meeting will be chaired by Janice Halpern MD and Ellen Warner MD, co-chairs of the Committee for Reconciliation of Patient and Physician Rights, a sub-committee of B’nai Brith Canada’s League for Human Rights.
Attorneys Brendan Donovan and Greg Sidlofsky of Wagner Sidlofsky LLP will also provide a legal update.
