The whole "assisted suicide" vs "Tarceva" thing is a red herring. I think it absolutely right for OHP to fund assisted suicide. And all insurance companies have a list of drugs that they cannot provide because they are too expensive. Even in Canada, most provinces will not cover the cost of Elaprase because it costs $400,000/year/patient.
Someone from the OHP SUGGESTING assisted suicide should have criminal charges. That should be the real story.
