    The three Quebec doctors in the new class action suit, who are also referred to only by their initials, have argued that approving requiring consent would interfere with the right of doctors to make their own decisions when delivering care to patients.

    That statement, even through a lawyer, should result in the loss of license.

      Curious about the person who downvoted this. Do they think that doctors should be allowed to do whatever the hell the want with the patient? Should doctors be allowed to lobotomize whoever they feel like whenever they want too? Maybe the next time you go to get a colonoscopy the doctor wants to remove your teeth at the same time just for shits and giggles. Those doctors had no reason to sterilize those women other than that they wanted to.

      Any doctor who doesn’t consider patient consent important should have their license revoked just for expressing that stance. People who don’t value consent can’t be trusted with patients.
