The Physicians' Alliance against Euthanasia was founded in 2012 by 24 Quebec doctors, in response to the report of the Quebec government's Select Committee on Dying with Dignity, which recommended legalization of euthanasia in Quebec, redefining it as health care to escape the Canadian Criminal code prohibition of causing the death of any person, even with his or her consent.

Le Collectif des médecins contre l'euthanasie a été fondé en 2012 par 24 médecins du Québec, en réaction au rapport de la Commission spéciale Mourir dans la dignité du gouvernement du Québec. Ce rapport recommandait que le Québec légalise l'euthanasie, en la définissant comme soin de santé pour détourner le Code criminel du Canada, qui interdit de causer la mort d'une personne, même si celle-ci y donne son consentement.
