Question
find an Ottawa Citizen news story about Scott Starson. Some issues to reflect upon in your thought paper:
3. Scott’s psychiatrist said: "I hope the Supreme Court in its wisdom will look not only at the issue of the right to refuse treatment, but the right to treatment. There is tremendous suffering. To pretend that a person is a 'happy psychotic' simply doesn't make sense." Do you agree? Why or why not?
