A "bill of rights" that's expected to be introduced this fall includes pro-freedom proposals, enshrining the "right to life" into law from conception and guaranteeing each citizen the "right" to medical "informed consent" as well as the "right" to "refuse vaccinations."

LifeSiteNews was recently provided exclusive access to a draft version of the "Alberta Bill of Rights" from a source well connected with the ruling United Conservative Party (UCP).

The provisions protecting healthcare workers from being forced to participate in state-sanctioned medical assistance in dying, or MAiD as it is known, is written under a section called "Freedom of informed consent and to make personal health decisions, including to refuse vaccinations, medical or surgical procedures."

"Individuals' healthcare personal choices and safety are further secured by the separation of health care and death care," the draft text states.

"Whereas: individual healthcare workers and private hospice facilities have the rights to freedom of conscience when deciding whether to recommend or participate in prescribing or providing medical assistance in dying."

It also includes, as reported by LifeSiteNews, a section that guarantees each citizen has the "right" to medical "informed consent" as well as the "right" to "refuse vaccinations"...
