Euthanasia in the Netherlands, Ten Years On
Oy, what a crappy article. From the stock syringe image to the "two sides to every story" to the Nazi references, Marco Hochqemuth hits all the typical buttons on this brief piece about how the Netherlands led with same-sex marriage and other nations followed but only two have adopted assisted suicide since the Netherlands did 10 years ago. Sans the religion quotes, it's one of the more cliched articles I've seen in a while.
Read more on the 10th anniversary here.

Euthanasia is a good indicator of the overall moral state of Canadian society.
It legalizes euthanasia and assisted suicide in specific cases, under very specific circumstances. It decriminalized euthanasia in cases where very strict criteria are met.
