How Quebec Left the Church and Became the World Leader in Assisted Dying

Quebec has undergone a significant shift away from its Roman Catholic roots, embracing a more secular approach to end-of-life care. The province has become a world leader in assisted dying, with many residents viewing control over one's death as a fundamental individual right. This perspective is in stark contrast to the Catholic Church's stance on euthanasia, which Quebec has largely rejected. As a result, Quebec now has one of the most permissive assisted dying regimes globally.
