摘要

In a November 2024 article of this journal Don A. Merrill suggested Tom Koch’s (2023) article “A Skeptic’s Report” either misunderstood or did not understand a “slippery slope argument”. That article was an attempt to answer earlier authors who asked if the concerns of researchers prior to enabling legislation had been fulfilled. The "slippery slope" was one. In this article, the nature of those early concerns are again considered in relation to the nature of the “slippery slope event” that has resulted in an increasing annual number of deaths with progressively looser requirements for early medical termination. Like the original article, it uses Health Canada data to describe what has occurred, not a predictive argument on what may be.
