Canada will not allow assisted suicide for those with only mental illness

What the coverage shows

Both outlets focus on Canada halting plans to extend assisted dying to people with mental illness alone, and both frame the move as a change to a previously discussed expansion. The BBC says the plans have been “paused indefinitely” and notes a March 2027 eligibility target in its extract, while South China Morning Post says the justice minister is seeking to “close debate” on the issue. The SCMP also uniquely mentions Canada’s 2016 legalisation of assisted dying for those at the end of life.
