Should voluntary euthanasia be legalised within hospitals?

This is a values debate. The case line of either Con or Pro contestants must be clear and concise. The key ideas in the main line should answer;
- Why
- Or state; Because...
F
or this debate, there will need to be a clear introduction for both sides. An introduction should state a resolution, explain how certain words will be used(defining), and state major arguments.

Example: (Resolution = The resolution for debate today is this house regrets the war on drugs. ( Caseline = As the opposition, we know that illegal drugs are horrible and we must use any means necessary to reduce their use. We must say no to drugs in every way we can. I will prove that illegal drugs pose a threat to society and that our current strategy is reducing their availability. Also, I will prove that alternative strategies contribute to making these dangerous drugs unacceptable.

We will start by stating and labelling the argument. Also in this round, contestants will expand and explain why their argument is true, expand and explain your position a bit, provide evidence for your argument, and then finally explain how this evidence ties back to your original topic/thesis/case line.

Example: Our first argument is that significantly increasing consequences for young offenders is bad because it makes things worse for youth and society alike. The major Canadian study of the subject was published this year by the University de Montreal. The study found that after following up with a variety of youth for twenty years that "delinquent behaviour is contagious, especially among adolescents". The study also found jailing teens makes it 37% more likely that they will become re-offenders as adults. This proves that jailing young offenders does not reduce crime and actually increases it, putting young offenders and society in a much more despondent position.

After each side makes their position clear on where they stand, contestants are allowed to prepare for a clash which will be against specific arguments or evidence, a clash that attacks multiple arguments with one idea, or /and clash the other opponent by showing how one main idea attacks a whole part of an opponents case(caseline clash).

Example of a clash: My opponent is arguing that by allowing a doctor to assist with a death with dignity that this is somehow compromising our medical system. They are also arguing that there will be a tremendous pressure on the doctor. However, doctors already have the option not to necessitate their patients. So this in fact is not causing any of the problems that the opposition has brought forth. (Global clash = Furthermore, this is actually giving a choice to these people to have control over their own body. This is what this debate really comes down to, 'Do people reserve the right to make their own choices'. ( Caseline clash = Now, the opposition believes the government should protect people from themselves. However, on the side of proposition we know that people reserve the right to make their own decisions.

Also in this round will be a rebuttal in where clashing will occur and summary of arguments occur. Rebuttals should include the following;

Example of rebuttal: (Summary = Today we proved to you that nuclear energy is a green safe choice. I argue that modern nuclear energy has a great safety record and does not contribute to nuclear weapons. My partner proved that it is in fact a green technology and that we need to rely less on coal. (Clash = However, my opponents did not agree. They said we should use wind turbines and solar energy. This is all fine, but what happens when there is not enough wind for the production of energy? What will happen in the winter when days are shorter and light energy cannot be used ? Like I said, we need to have reliable power. Nuclear energy doesn't change, it always gives you the same amount, my opponents also said that it gives radioactive waste. This is not true, evidence for our argument for nuclear energy provide that waste is stored within rocks, which aid in containing the waste from our atmosphere, contributing to global warming. That is why this resolution must stand, thank you.
