Psychiatric euthanasia

Do you think it's right? Canada was supposed to expand it for those who sole wish to die was a mental disorder but they've delayed it until March of next year as people are concerned there are not enough safeguards.
Belgium and the Netherlands have offered assisted suicide/euthanasia for depression as well as addiction and even tinnitus. I've been seeing a lot of comments who are disturbed but I don't see why. Mental suffering can just be as real as physical suffering.
Suicidality is a symptom of many mental illnesses but given how horrible mental health services are in North America and Europe, a person can essentially be left to suffer for decades with no treatment or inadequate treatment.
Would you vote on it if a referendum was brought here?
