It's unfair to force doctors to refer patients for MAID or abortion, if they are unwilling to perform the procedure themselves, because it violates their freedom of conscience. you would not force doctors to refer patients to pro-life physicians or services, under pain of losing their career, so why should pro-life doctors be discriminated against in this way.
Allowing physicians to opt out of performing those procedures is meaningless, if they are still required to participate in them by referring patients to those who will do them.
