Additionally, our government and health care system couldn't organize a two car parade - and you guys want to give them the keys to the gas chamber.

By your belief system suicide is wrong.
According to Stats Can, 53% of Canadians believe in a 'god'.
So very nearly 1/2 the population doesn't hold themselves to your belief system.
As far as I'm concerned...being that you cannot prove your belief system (proof and faith being entirely different) you have no right to dictate to those who believe in the right to medically assisted suicide in certain cases.
If in fact you turn out to be right...then God (if there is one) will get to deal with people who've committed the sin of suicide...but you have no rights over what I choose.
