In Canada it’s against the law to attempt suicide. It’s illegal not to report or try to avoid someone from killing themselves if you know about it and if they succeed.

Outdated law, used to exist when Britain was very religous and its a sin to commit suicide. so about 200 years ago. maybe more.

This is no longer true. There are NO capital offenses in the UK due to a human rights bill.
