Last weekend we had lunch at my brother and sister in laws home.
Politics came up. Heather told us she was planning on voting for the Green Party, one of the reasons she cited was because they believed in dying with dignity.
I found it interesting that in that moment I realized that this was an issue that mattered to me, I mean really mattered, and yet I had no idea how any of the parties stood on the issue.
In fact it had not even occured to me to think about the issue.
I listen to the parties talk about issues like the economy, jobs, defence and recently thankfully the environment.
All very important issues, I am not debating that, but how interesting it was to learn that for the first time I wanted to dig deeper into who I was voting for.
When we got home, I was still thinking about it, and I mentioned to Terri that I was curious about how the other parties felt on the dying with dignity issue.
He says, give me five minutes I will just google it.
An hour later we were no closer to finding the answer.
