Today, in Queensland, three people will end their lives, courtesy of our euthanasia laws. Tomorrow, based on official numbers, another three will. And the next day and the next day. But we can’t say we care about our sick and our most vulnerable if we don’t pause, and consider what we heard this week: that a coroner has called in police after one young man ended his life with a drug used to euthanise beached whales. The truth of the allegations in this particular case are best tested in court.
