This very credible web page is rich in arguments and has many clear and simple points that are very direct. There are a few points that I thought were more important than others. The first point was that assisting suicide was goes against law and public morality, which means that it is against social values. Also, they mentioned that if someone really wants to die, it may be "due to depression or misapprehension of their prognosis". Euthanasia is also irreversible. Some people can act on things while going through a tough time in their lives. Not only that, but euthenasia would create social pressures on vulnerable people. Euthenasia would also ruin relationships between elders and their children. Often, elders are seen as a burden, and with the option of euthanasia, they will feel pressured not to be a burden anymore. Lastly, the relationship between the doctor and the patient would be ruined. Patients would be afraid that they would be euthanised against their will, which is a real situation in Holland.

This web site is very informative for my team and I because it explains many credible arguments against euthanasia. First of all, it explains in detail the terms "terminally ill", which is often used as a reason to help someone commit suicide. Secondly, they talk about euthanasia being a way for the government to save money. Physicians have been allowed cash bonuses if they do not provide care for patients in the United States. This means that doctors could influence patients to go through with the 'treatment' only because they get more money from it. Third point is that at one point, if we legalize euthanasia, they would be mesmerized by the idea of death and will be influenced by the outside world. The fourth and last point is that euthanasia is a rejection of the importance and value of human life. With euthanasia, no one's life is being saved. We are just taking people's lives away.

In 2002 and 2006, Canada was instensly pressured by Washington to drag 2500 combat troops to the war in Afghanistan, which Canada did. They were then accused of their involvement in torture in the Afghan torture. Richard Colvin, who is a Canadian diplomat, revealed that the government has been sending Afghan prisoner to the secret police of the Kabul government, where prisoners are tortured and executed. Canada claims that they were unaware that Afghan prisons were being used as torture centers by the Communists. These tortures included many horrible things such as burning, beating, raping, sexual humiliations, though Canada claims to be unaware of this even if the Amnesty International and the Red Cross warned Ottawa that the prisoners that Canada was sending were being treated this way. Yet, they kept sending this prisoners over to the Afghan NDS, which is a violation of the Geneva Convection and human rights.
