text: The Supreme Court of Canada demanded a law from Canada's Parliament and gave them a  deadline. The Trudeau government came up with a very restrictive legislation regarding doctor assisted suicide. You make it sound like anyone can apply. 
  Key conditions are:
  - a person must be terminally ill
  - the person must be of sound mind and request the procedure
  How are Catholics persecuted? 
  The legislation does not prohibit freedom of speech. The Pope is free to speak out.
