Choices: A Position Paper on Euthanasia

The British Columbia Persons with AIDS Society is mandated to empower their members by respecting each individual's choice regarding euthanasia and advocating for safe access to health services. The Society believes that: each individual should have safe access to medically assisted euthanasia should the individual choose euthanasia as an option; professional counselling should be provided in order that individuals may make an informed decision; euthanasia should be decriminalized; and be a regarded as a universal health service.
