Oh my God! Save us from the evil of this policy. I remember when Dr. Kevorkian was pursuing this type of “treatment” in the US many years ago and was jailed for it. It seems that acceptance of this activity is increasing in our world today. Is it that religion is in decline in Canada as it is in the US, or is it that “medicine” has bought into the idea of population control through assisted suicide? Do we no longer value life? So many policies seem to be supporting population control besides assisted suicide; abortion at any time and transgender medicine to name couple. I fear for civilization.
Since Covid began the world seems like a distopian science fiction novel. Disease, lockdowns, censorship, lining up for government death...does it get weirder? --please dont answer that.
Thanks for this timely commentary about what is happening with MAID, and now the shift to euthanizing the vaccine injured. It's also a "thing" people in my mother (92-years-old) circle of seniors talk about. I've been to three memorial services since the summer where each of the deceased died by opting for MAID. And these are "religious" people who attended church all their lives. But, despite whatever might have led them in the past to die "in God's time," - the idea that death is in God's hands, and not something we fashion for ourselves - now the aged commiserate that they "don't want to be a bother, or a nuisance" to their family (adult children) etc. And so MAID is seen as a way to avoid being "a bother," or "a drain" on family inheritance, or a way to resolve feelings of loneliness or depression.
When MAID was first proposed, I was open to it for people with a terminal illness like ALS (once it progressed past a certain point). But now, MAID is almost fashionable - something that those who are "trendsetting," who see themselves as "with it" choose to instruct others is their wish.
And so much of this pitch to opt for MAID is done in the name of "compassion." Perhaps even the breakup of a dating relationship (for even the young) could be the basis for a compassionate end to a young life if the young man or woman was distraught enough (at the age of 34, or 27 or 22) about the slim chances of ever meeting someone who'd love them?
Canada is a nation in decline, and MAID is a case study in why that is so.

A society that goes this direction is one that has completely abdicated anything but totalitarian materialism.
Stephen Jenkinson has spoken about this beautifully in many places: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIN3erN9uoI
The FDA said we're not horses, so we're probably safe in the US. Oh, wait. They already injected 240 million Americans with mRNA toxin.
