Beyond MAiD for Mental Illness: Confronting Canada’s Mental Health Challenges
June 5 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm
Location: 45 Rideau St., Ottawa, ON K1N 5W8
The presentation will focus on the mental health crisis in Canada, as described in the event invitation:
“As discussions around the expansion of medical assistance in dying (MAiD) for people with mental illnesses continue, it’s clear that Canada is facing a profound mental health crisis. While the temporary delay of MAiD for mental illness offers a reprieve, urgent action is required to tackle the pressing issues in our mental health landscape. Join us for an insightful conversation on navigating these challenges and charting a path toward a more compassionate and hopeful future.”
The presentation will feature:
Dr. Sephora Tang, psychiatrist and Cardus Health senior fellow
Dr. Tim Lau, geriatric psychiatrist
