An Environics Research Institute poll reveals that the level of support for assisted suicide among Canadians is slightly higher than it was at the time of the Sue Rodriguez Supreme Court case in 1993. There are some shifts in where support is strongest - and weakest. Support ranges from a low of 59% among those without a high school education to a high of 85% among Bloc Quebecois supporters.
For a look at the complete survey including data going back 20 years, go to Environics Research Institute poll results.
The National's Duncan McCue begins a four part documentary series Monday, October 28 called "Last Right" which follows a number of Canadians as they try to bring about a peaceful end to their lives.
