Death of euthanasia
Bus ride marks 'death' of euthanasia law

More than one hundred people are marking the 10th anniversary of the overturning of the Northern Territory's voluntary euthanasia law with a bus trip from Sydney to the nation's capital.

The so-called "freedom ride" began at midday (AEST) Sunday, with elderly and seriously ill voluntary euthanasia supporters boarding two buses covered in "Day Of Shame" banners, organisers said.

The trip is being made ahead of Monday's anniversary of the federal government's overriding of the Northern Territory's world-first Rights of the Terminally Ill Act in 1997.

On one of the buses is euthanasia advocate Dr Philip Nitschke, who said those involved had come from around the country to take part.

"There's a general feeling that it's good to be able to do something and mark the anniversary on Monday in some way," Dr Nitschke said.

Before the group set off from Sydney they re-enacted the original freedom ride photo from 1965 when a group of Sydney university students travelled through the state to expose discrimination against indigenous people.

Monday's anniversary will be marked by several events in Canberra, including the public burning of several hundred copies of Dr Nitschke's book, The Peaceful Pill, which has been banned in Australia.

"The books are worthless ... so we may as well burn the bloody things in front of parliament house," Dr Nitschke said.

A choir will also sing Advance Euthanasia Fair, while a memorial dinner at the National Museum will be addressed by columnist and human rights advocate Phillip Adams

Agnes Water often called Agnes Waters and it is common for Lady Musgrave Island to be called Lady Musgrove Island and Captain Cook to Captian Cook and Capitan Cook or Captan Cook, with the Town of Seventeen Seventy now known as 1770 that would be hard to misspell for anyone. The correct spelling of Bundaburg Queensland, is Bundaberg.
