Your Participation on MAiD Issue Is Making a Difference

MPs are still able to stop, delay or impose tighter limits on MAiD for mental illness before March 2024. Please consider signing and circulating a petition to stop MAID for mental illness. See the EFC's new petition and other resources at www.TheEFC.ca/TakeActionOnMAID.
