The three plaintiffs involved in the landmark B.C. Supreme Court case that opens the door to assisted suicide are set to address reporters tomorrow.
Gloria Taylor, Lee Carter and Hollis Johnson are set to speak publicly for the first time since a judge ruled last Friday laws banning doctor-assisted suicide are unconstitutional.
Taylor, 64, suffers from ALS, or Lou Gehrig’s disease, and has been told she will die within three years.
Carter and Johnson, married, travelled with Carter’s mother to Switzerland in 2010 where she received help to end her life following a battle with spinal stenosis.
The court ruling has been delayed for a year so Parliament can consider changes to legislation.
