As a Canadian, it’s interesting to see a free vote on the measure. These were whipped, as government legislation.

Wasn't government legislation here. I don't think it's in anyone's manifesto.

Interesting, didn’t realize that this was a private member bill; and the bill had specific headwinds due to the Canadian “slippery slope” experience.

Yeah - it looks like it was very easy to say "If we do this, then these bad things will happen" and point at people in Canada being pushed towards killing themselves.
