I do not support the changes in this draft standard to require physicians to refer patients for treatments that they personally might be morally or consciously opposed to. I, and the majority of people, want a doctor who values the sanctity of life and believes in Medical Assistance in Living NOT dying. Also, forcing doctors to refer for procedures they disagree with will force more doctors out of the profession or to other destinations. Doctors are already in short supply in Alberta and this would make access even more difficult.
