Supreme Court of Canada will hear appeals in the cases of BC women who fought for assisted suicide.
Should terminally ill Canadians have the choice to end their life?
The Supreme Court of Canada will revisit the long debated issue.
The country's highest court will hear an appeal in the case of Kay Carter and Gloria Taylor. Both women faced progressive illnesses and fought to end their lives.
Taylor was able to overturn the assisted suicide law in 2012. But that was short lived, as the B-C Court of Appeal overturned a judge's decision ruling the law unconstitutional. She eventually died from her degenerative neurological condition without assistance.
Now the Supreme Court's will revisit the issue more than 2 decades after the high court's ruling in the case of Sue Rodriguez, which ended against legalizing assisted suicide.
The latest hearing to decide the fate of assisted suicide will be heard in the fall.
