I apologize if this is offensive, but I really need to understand:

An instructor of a course I’m taking claims that several years ago, a 70 year old Canadian friend of the family was denied a stent, due to age. This sounds sus af to me, so I’m wondering if there is any province that would deny this procedure to someone based solely on their age?

Tyia.

        I’ve never heard of a procedure being denied here due to age or anything else like that

          Yes, I think she’s just anti single-prayer. She also read us the Hippocratic oath and emphasized the part about not euthanizing anyone or assisting in abortion, while completely not saying anything about the diet mention.
