Paper Summary:

Euthanasia is the practice of inducing death, generally in the context of incurable and painful disease. Robert Latimer practiced euthanasia when he placed his12-year-old daughter in the cab of his pick-up truck and turned on the ignition. This discussion uses this case as a stepping-stone to the wider issue of human rights and autonomy that is raised when decisions of life and death are made for the severely disabled.
