More than 1,300 amendments were tabled during the committee stage, a record for any parliamentary bill. The debate lasted over 75 hours, consuming the available parliamentary timetable and preventing the bill from advancing.<\/p>\n<p>There is a \u201cbig pushback happening\u201d against assisted suicide, Alex Schadenberg, executive director for <a href=\"https:\/\/epcc.ca\/\">the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition<\/a>, said in an April 28 interview with \u201cEWTN News Nightly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=4w2vClNUYd0&#038;list=PLSeC25RsaeZieDNxaF4zGD4U_Fg5Ldd8h&#038;index=3\" title=\"Embedded content\" width=\"100%\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The House of Lords \u201cactually did what they\u02bcre supposed to do,\u201d Schadenberg said. \u201cThey debated the bill and the government actually expected them to just have a short debate, have it go to committee, and then have it pass through. And in fact, they did have a thorough debate of the bill.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The bill was introduced by Kim Leadbeater, a British Labour Party politician, and it passed in the House of Commons in June 2025. It would have allowed terminally ill adults with six months or less to live to request medical help to end their own lives.<\/p>\n<p>While proponents said they expect to resurrect the proposal, it is \u201cdefinitely at this moment losing momentum,\u201d Schadenberg said. \u201cI think it has a lot to do with the fact that it was recently defeated also in Scotland.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?q=Assisted+Dying+for+Terminally+Ill+Adults+%28Scotland%29+Bill&#038;rlz=1C5GCEM_enUS1200US1200&#038;oq=assisited+suicde+bill+in+Scotland+was+originally+passed+by+70+to+56&#038;gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOdIBCDI0NDVqMGo3qAIAsAIA&#038;sourceid=chrome&#038;ie=UTF-8&#038;mstk=AUtExfBgToyzOmqUsxS-s5n-Jh7iuyF0YgDXn2PAf2-RNxLwK1fTTMXmya9UAWCfnR3P_o4tIyOSwH-1WeoNqzR9UrLfSfE9cIS_aKL5HXZ8jgHaBFNzGi5ZSmNYAxypRjIGkbUMuHbC4yHGuoh5BXHMvdt5wzmCyWRQknI6l87cFCwaQD9T8y69fUpjPVZHi-21JJOwBguCBXEe9jaKUfcG5-fLio8_du5hgvTueg0EtVY2eLWk4BBVGmyVOwUK27ePujpCCLlhRGJxsLV1HDULA0jV&#038;csui=3&#038;ved=2ahUKEwjsr_ilopGUAxUQEGIAHeLOOU4QgK4QegQIARAB\">Assisted Dying for Terminally Ill Adults (Scotland) Bill<\/a> &#8220;was originally passed by 70 to 56, then it went into committee, then they had the final vote on it and it was defeated,\u201d he said. \u201cThe vote flipped around; it was 69 to 57. It was defeated. This is the same group of people who first passed it and then defeated it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe also have the effect of Slovenia, who had a referendum and they overturned their assisted suicide law,\u201d Schadenberg said.<\/p>\n<p>Also in Canada, \u201cthere\u02bcs been a lot of pushback now on euthanasia \u2026 So we\u02bcre seeing this big pushback happening, which had not been happening before, partially because our government is very pro-euthanasia,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<h2>\u2018Language\u2019 of euthanasia matters<\/h2>\n<p>In the U.K., and other nations, the language of euthanasia is not always clear, but it is \u201cwhen a doctor, or in my country of Canada, a nurse practitioner, intentionally kills you,\u201d Schadenberg said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is not about giving you lethal poison and you take it yourself, which is what happens in the U.S. with assisted suicide. This is them actually killing you,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>When &#8220;debate actually happens and people get a chance to actually discuss it openly, you realize pretty quickly that the support for it just starts disappearing because the euthanasia movement bases their big push on emotions,\u201d Schadenberg said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey want us to fear. They tell us stories of people who were going through difficult health conditions, and the answer for them was killing them,&#8221; he said. &#8220;So I see that when you get this proper debate, things start turning around.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In Canada there is \u201ca committee looking at euthanasia for mental illness alone,\u201d he said. \u201cThis whole committee is starting to reverse in direction because we\u02bcre actually discussing, \u2018What does this actually mean?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The committee is \u201cwilling to discuss this openly, and the euthanasia lobby is getting very nervous because people are starting to back off from their support,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>While in the U.S., \u201cthere are now 13 states \u2026 that have legalized assisted suicide,\u201d we \u201chave to be willing to talk about what it is, always compassionately though,\u201d Schadenberg said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u02bcm not opposed to euthanasia or assisted suicide just because of how bad this is. I\u02bcm opposed to killing people,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>If \u201cyou allow the language of the other side to rule the debate, you end up losing the debate because people start thinking of it in a fuzzy way rather than for what it actually is,\u201d Schadenberg said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The push to legalize assisted suicide in the United Kingdom is \u201closing momentum\u201d after legislation to legalize it stalled, according to a euthanasia prevention advocate.
