Abstract
In 2016, Canada passed Bill C-14 to legalize Medical Aid in Dying (MAID, hereinafter translated as euthanasia); in 2021, Canada passed Bill C-7, allowing a wider group of people to be eligible to apply for and accept euthanasia, this sparked controversy. Meanwhile, euthanasia will account for 3.3 percent of Canadian deaths in 2021. This paper uses the method of collecting official data for data analysis and comparative analysis to study Canadas euthanasia policy. Palliative care costs a lot in Canada, which may have an impact on the governments decision-making in terms of finances, but there is no absolute evidence that the Canadian government legislates for euthanasia to save medical expenses.
