Deadly Censorship Games: Keeping a Tight Lid on the Euthanasia Debate
21 November 2011, 6.39am AEST Deadly censorship games: keeping a tight lid on the euthanasia debate Author 1. Brian Martin Professor of Social Sciences at University of Wollongong Disclosure Statement Brian Martin joined Exit International in order to be able to attend members-only workshops. Provides funding as a Member of The Conversation. uow.edu.au The Australian government vigorously censors information about peaceful ways of dying even though we have access to violent means of ending life. Alex @ Faraway TALKING ABOUT DEATH AND DYING - Why don’t we talk about death and dying? We can choose so many of our life experiences, but it seems we can have no say in whether we die in pain or at peace. Today we look at the Australian government’s efforts to suppress discussion of euthanasia. There’s plenty of information available on how to kill yourself violently, so why does the Australian government so vigorously censor information on peaceful methods? Voluntary euthanasia societies have long been pushing to legalise death with dignity. According to opinion polls, a strong majority of Australians support legalisation , yet Australian governments have been unreceptive. When the Northern Territory government legalised euthanasia in 1996, the federal parliament overruled the law less than a year later. Philip Nitschke, despairing of the legal route , set up Exit International to enable people to learn how to obtain a peaceful death through their own initiative. Exit publications provide information about obtaining pentobarbital, commonly known as Nembutal, the drug of choice everywhere that death with dignity is legal. Censorship and response The Australian government has responded with amazingly draconian censorship.

DILUTING the MEANING of LIFE and DEATH by Ladisa Onyiliogwu
DILUTING THE MEANING OF LIFE AND DEATH by Ladisa Onyiliogwu A thesis submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Government Baltimore, Maryland December, 2020 © 2020 Ladisa Onyiliogwu All Rights Reserved Abstract Changes in semantics has diluted the meaning of abortion and euthanasia. Using political philosophy, this paper examines the treatment of terminology and linguistic choice and how they serve as a quiet catalyst for both movements. In the first chapter, the rhetorical question ‘what is death’ allows the readers of this thesis to ponder the finality of all that is living. The abortion chapter is chronologically structured beginning with an overview of state laws and national legislation criminalizing activity. Political movements, scientific advancements and new terminology are included and presented in a parallel manner. The euthanasia chapter reveals quite intriguing discoveries of priming and framing techniques. Research pertaining to historical connotations of good death and syntax was also conducted to expand this chapter. Peer reviewed articles, Supreme Court cases, books on death and even one piece of strategic management research was used to develop the thesis. The results are fascinating and divulge a litany of terms, titles and phrases used to describe two words – abortion and euthanasia. The resounding sentiment in the United States at this point in time (circa 2020) is to follow the science. In contrast, there seems to be a loss of appetite when the science leads in a direction opposite a preferred ideological path. Immoral activity that may have seemed unreasonable yesteryear are now deemed reasonable, cost effective and moral today.

Witness to Medically-Assisted Dying in Canada: a Counselling and Psychotherapy Perspective
Running head: WITNESS TO MEDICALLY-ASSSISTED DYING IN CANADA 1 Witness to Medically-Assisted Dying in Canada: A Counselling and Psychotherapy Perspective Charles D. Walsh May 11, 2018 Winnipeg, Manitoba CCPA Annual Conference May 10-13, 2018 WITNESS TO MEDICALLY-ASSSISTED DYING IN CANADA 2 The following is adapted from a presentation delivered in Winnipeg on May 11, 2018, during the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association 2018 Annual Conference. Witness to Medically-Assisted Dying in Canada: A Counselling and Psychotherapy Perspective I certainly appreciate the opportunity to speak with you today, and I’m delighted to deliver this talk during the Canadian Hospice Palliative Care Association’s National Hospice Palliative Care Week – serendipity for sure. In recognition of the Winnipeg Jets fantastic season, I’ve broken down the talk into three periods. Introduction In way of introduction, I would like to assert the following in relation to the arrival of medical assistance in dying in the Canadian context: First – It Didn’t Emerge in Isolation Medically-assisted dying in Canada, as elsewhere, didn’t come to pass in isolation and can rather be understood as part of an international, and more particularly cross-border, initiative heavily influenced by and occurring alongside the United States, and can be seen to precede the introduction of physician-assisted dying in the U.S., at least as it became part of the Canadian national consciousness through the Supreme Court of Canada’s 1993 decision in Rodriguez v. British Columbia (a landmark decision where the prohibition of assisting in a suicide was challenged as contrary to the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms by Sue Rodriguez, who was terminally ill).
