A woman has shared that her grandmother chose to die by euthanasia because she was scared of being a burden. Her grandmother’s death, however, has negatively affected her own mental health.

The Faroe Islands, a traditionally conservative archipelago under Danish sovereignty with a strong Lutheran heritage, has tragically legalized abortion on demand up to 12 weeks of pregnancy, dismantling decades of pro-life protections that safeguarded the unborn. On December 4, 2025, the parliament passed the measure by the slimmest margin—17-16—following a failed attempt last year that ended in a tie. This shift, effective July 1, 2026, replaces a 1956 law restricting abortions to cases of rape, incest, maternal health risks, or severe fetal issues, where the islands maintained an admirably low rate of just 3 per 1,000 women—far below Europe’s average of 16.

In an explosive report, the Guardian revealed leaked documents that show the Labour Party suggested legalizing assisted suicide through a PMB, with the goal of retaining influence over the legislation and scoring points with voters. There were allegedly 11 references to the pro-assisted suicide group Dignity in Dying in those documents, which said there would be “strong, impactful campaigns in favour of assisted dying during the general election campaign” as a means of persuading an MP — presumably Leadbeater — to introduce the bill.

Canadians are warning of the multi-generational trauma of losing their family members to euthanasia and assisted suicide, as a record 16,499 people died by euthanasia in Canada in 2024, accounting for 5.1% of all deaths in the country.
