  QUEBEC CITY A committee at the Quebec National Assembly began new work Friday on possibly expanding medical assistance people who want to end their lives. In 2014, Quebec enacted a law to offer medical assistance in dying (MAID) to people who fit within a certain category: patients of adult age, suffering from a serious and incurable illness, at the end of life, where their suffering was deemed intolerable. The end-of-life criterion was eliminated in 2020 in response to a Superior Court ruling in favour of Nicole Gladu and Jean Truchon, who were suffering from serious health problems without being in agony.
