Scheduled to Die: The Rise of Canada's Assisted Suicide Program. What do you do when you discover your son has made an appointment for his death?
Common Sense (Bari Weiss Substack) ^ | October 11, 2022 | Rupa Subramanya

On September 7, Margaret Marsilla called Joshua Tepper, the doctor who planned to kill her son.

Marsilla is 46, and she lives outside Toronto with her husband and daughter, a nursing student. She had known that her 23-year-old son, Kiano Vafaeian, was depressed—he was diabetic and had lost his vision in one eye, and he didn’t have a job or girlfriend or much of a future—and Marsilla asked her daughter to log onto Kiano’s account. (Kiano had given his sister access so she could help him with his email.) He never shared anything with his mother—what he was thinking, where he was going—and Marsilla was scared.

That was when Marsilla learned that Kiano had applied and, in late July, been approved for “medical assistance in dying,” aka MAiD, aka assisted suicide.

His death was scheduled for September 22.

In a September 7 email from Tepper, the doctor, to Kiano and Tekla Hendrickson, the executive director of MAiDHouse, the Toronto facility where Kiano’s death would take place, Tepper mapped out the schedule:

“Hii,” he emailed. (Apparently, Tepper did not use spell check.) “I am confirming the following timing: Please arrive at 8:30 am. I will ask for the nurse at 8:45 am and I will start the procedure at around 9:00 am. Procedure will be completed a few minutes after it starts.”

The procedure entailed administering two drugs. First, a coma-inducing agent. Then, a neuromuscular blocker that would stop Kiano’s breathing. He would be dead in five to ten minutes.

Compare the calm tone of the “clinic” with the hysteria that there is every time someone is scheduled for execution for a murder in the USA.

It’s clear to me that the left wants all the old descendants of Europeans dead, and murderers alive, free, getting EBT cards, a free Iphone, an apartment, and a voter registration card.

This is a case where I really don't want to read the rest of the article.

I never dreamed I would live to see the day that a healthy 23 year old can schedule his own euthanization in the same casual manner as scheduling a root canal.

Very chilling. What is wrong with doctors, that they would participate in this?

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The same thing that’s been going on (and still is) with the medical community killing (murdering, actually) patients in hospitals with Remdesivir and vents. Patients are deprived of water and food during this time as well. Family cannot be with them & watch them die on FaceTime/Zoon. It’s inhuman and cruel. “Never Again” is happening ‘again’, just in COVID death wards rather than in gas ‘showers’.

A few links to what I’m saying. The world is pretty much upside down these days.

Lawsuit against 3 hospitals just filed:

The Conservative Review Podcast with Daniel Horowitz: Episode “The Woman Who Survived America’s Hospital Holocaust with COVID | Guest: Gail Seiler | 9/26/22

https://www.theblaze.com/podcasts/daniel-horowitz-podcast

One could make a movie about Gail Seiler’s experience in a Plano, Texas, hospital during the pandemic. Our hospitals have become killing fields. From remdesivir and illegal DNR orders to denial of treatment, forced starvation, and abuse based on vaccination status, Gail experienced the horrors that hundreds of thousands of other Americans suffered in the hospitals. Except, thanks to her husband and help from state Senator Bob Hall, she wound up being forcibly extricated from the hospital. Even though the doctors said she wouldn’t last a day longer, she is now perfectly healthy and is trying to raise awareness about the hospital genocide. She volunteers for the Former Feds Group and the organization’s COVID-19 Humanity Betrayal Memorial Project, which helps with lawsuits and legislation to fight medical tyranny. If you have a story to tell, you can visit chbmp.org.

The doctor backed out because of publicity about the case. Yell about this sort of thing from the rooftops, because it helps. Until this happened, most of us had no idea this crud was going on up north.

The mother is working to get guardianship over him and get him into therapy.

F**king grim. The attitude of Tepper is disturbing and speaks volumes about the weirdness of these people. This person needs help and not this kind of “help”.

For a leftist, only some people deserve culling. The ones they choose. Sound familiar?

If someone is determined to kill himself, he can do it.

We do not need to involve the medical profession. The dangers of this are glaringly obvious.

In a sicko liberal society, what is the difference between aborting a baby and then an adult? Nothing.

Not included in the message “we ask you to bring your co-pay to the office. We are unable to accept checks, Paypal or credit cards. Cash only. Please fill out the customer survey before the procedure. Thank you and have a wonderful day! Your friendly medical center is looking after you”?
“Oh, and we recommend you have someone drive you to the office. “
