The assassination of @AbeShinzo is incredibly shocking – and I’m deeply saddened. The world has lost a great man of vision, and Canada has lost a close friend. My thoughts are with his wife, Akie, and the people of Japan as they mourn this loss. You’ll be missed, my friend.
On behalf of all Canadians, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau extends his condolences to former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s family and friends, and to the Japanese people. Read his statement on the assassination of the former Prime Minister of Japan: https://t.co/8zmyKAKL2j
Laureen and I are horrified by the assassination of my former colleague, Prime Minister @AbeShinzo. As Japan's longest-serving PM, he championed democracy, freedom, and a strong Japan among the world’s democracies. His legacy will long endure. We grieve with Akie and his family.

そのとき、カナダでは、自分の意志で決め、医療のサポートを受けながら最期を迎えられる『尊厳死』を選択できる。英語で「Medical Assistance in Dying」。頭文字をとって『MAiD(通称メイド)』。この言葉を知っておくことで、耐えがたい状況の中でも一筋の光明になることがあるかもしれない。
『尊厳死』を選びたいとき、そのサポートをしてくれる団体がある。ブリティッシュ・コロンビア(BC)州のMAiD擁護団体Dying with Dignity Canada(DWDC)。今回は同団体バンクーバー支部長Alex Muir(アレックス・ミューア)さんを講師に招き、6月12日、ZOOMによる講演会が開催された。日本語認知症サポート協会主催。
