“You have a right to your personal beliefs. But you should not put your beliefs above other people's rights to make their own choices. Can you explain the difference between forcing someone to stay alive with treatments and letting them die with dignity?”
“Mr. Speaker, I am not challenging my colleague’s right to his personal convictions. I am challenging his possible intention to put his rights above the rights and autonomy of others. Can my colleague explain to the House the difference between therapeutic obstinacy and the right to die with dignity?”
