Doctors, like all other citizens should not be forced to act against their personal conscience. Doctors go into medicine to care for sick people and help them regain their health. Forcing doctors to refer patients for procedures that may result in the loss of life ( such as abortion or euthanasia) or body mutilation will force doctors to leave their medical practice and go elsewhere or perhaps change professions. We already have a critical shortage of doctors in this province. Please give them the support they need to practice their profession in a way that promotes life and health.
