Medical Assistance in Dying has been legal in Canada since June 2016 and is governed under federal law. Our speaker, Rosanne Beuthin, has a PhD in Nursing, and in her career has focused on practice and research in the areas of living with life threatening illness, death, and bereavement.

2026-08-12 10:00:00Z	Aug. 12, 2026	August Golf Tournament at Cedar Hill		Aug. 12, 2026 10:00 a.m.	Cedar Hill Golf Course	Our August outing is this August 12, 2026 with tee times starting at 12:02. We have reserved four tee times. This year's business arrangement with Cedar Hill is a little different. We are required to register as an "event". As such, we must pay in full on August 5 before the event. Green fees, including shared power carts and taxes, will be $88.45 per person. Payment, via interact e-transfer (dougroyross@icloud.com) must be made on or before July 29. If you haven't paid by then, you will be dropped from the tee sheet. A couple of points to be made: if you like to walk, that's fine but you'll still have to pay for the half power cart. The golf course requires this to save 8 carts for us; a decision will be made by August 4 to proceed with the event. If the weather looks bad or we don't get enough people (at least three foursomes), the event will be cancelled. In the event of cancellation, all moneys will be returned to the players via internet e-transfer. The August 4 decision date is firm because if we proceed by paying in full and we get rained out, we can't get our money back. These stricter rules for groups at Cedar Hill is inconvenient for us. If it proves difficult after the first outing, we may change our venue for the August Cedar Hill event.	View
