## Resource

"It's illegal to kill yourself because it counts as destroying government property." Hannah Wallen hosts Talk 410, continuing on assisted dying: what happens in Canada when the drug is administered to you rather than by you, and you change your mind after you've stopped being able to say so. Also: why the panel argues a facility that already sells human tissue shouldn't be trusted with the decision, the car dealership that would rather pay a technician a bonus than let him diagnose the fault, and what the medical system does to a patient nobody has bothered to assess. "Someone said women should be worshipped for childbirth, because the cervix does what it's made to do and expands. I pointed out that throughout history women were put on a pedestal and worshipped — and they got mad about it, called it oppression, and now they have to go get jobs."
