A Niagara At Large News Brief
(A Note To NAL Subscribers – Please ignore the last posting of this piece and accept this revised one. The proper date for this public forum is JANUARY 9th. Sorry for the typo on this one.)
It is one of the more contentious issues we, as a society, continue to face today.
To what extent should we as individuals and our loved ones, if we are no longer capable of making the call, have final say over ending our life if we feel that life is causing unbearable suffering or no longer offers any measure of quality or dignity? What are our choices? Should the laws be changed?
This Thursday, January 9th, the St. Catharines & District Council of Women will host a free public meeting on this difficult topic at the St. Catharines Centennial’s main downtown branch off James Street in the library’s Mills Memorial Room at 8 p.m. The keynote speaker at this meeting will be Dianne Woodruff, a volunteer with the Canada-based charity group Dying with Dignity.
