An e-mail obtained by an anti-euthanasia advocate reveals that veterans of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) are being encouraged to attend euthanasia seminars.
Key Takeaways:
Canada has become a world leader in assisted suicide since legalizing it in 2016.
Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) is now the fifth-leading cause of death in Canada.
Veterans have claimed they are being offered euthanasia when they try to obtain health care.
Now, it appears police veterans are likewise being encouraged to pursue MAID.
The Details:
Kelsi Sheren, combat veteran and CEO of Brass & Unity, recently obtained a copy of an e-mail sent to RCMP veterans promoting euthanasia. The person who sent the e-mail to Sheren remains anonymous but is a RCMP veteran.
“I served for 32 years on the West Coast and retired in 2019," the sender said. "As a Christian and a retired member of the RCMP I wanted to share this with you. I’m trying to wrap my head around this shocking email. I’m shocked it’s come to this.”
The e-mail was sent on November 20, 2025, and told RCMP veterans of the "opportunity" to attend a free seminar to learn about MAID.
Sheren wrote on her Substack:
This is a state-aligned institution normalizing death as a service to the very people they already failed to support in life. This was a [sic] information session, to 'educate' veterans who’s [sic] rates of PTSD and suicidality were already sky hight [sic]. How they can apply or use MAID[?]
This is what I’ve been talking about[;] welcome to the soft-coercive stage of Canada’s MAID regime.
The speaker for the seminar is Dr. Gordon Gubitz, a MAID assessor and clinical lead for the MAID program in Nova Scotia. He also is on the board of the Canadian Association of MAID Providers and Assessors (CAMAP).
"They didn’t invite a trauma specialist. They didn’t invite a palliative [care] expert. They didn’t invite a police mental-health advocate. They didn’t invite a mental health expert. They didn’t invite a [doctor] who looks at psychedelic assisted therapy," Sheren wrote. "They didn’t invite hope. They only invited death."
The Backstory:
Military veterans report that they have been pressured to undergo assisted suicide or euthanasia instead of receiving health care.
“We have 20 with written proof, more with audio recordings, and case managers admitting it,” Sheren said in testimony before the House of Commons Standing Committee on Veterans Affairs. “Others are too afraid to come forward — they’ve had their benefits threatened.”
And this has become a common problem for numerous Canadians. MAiD has been used as a way to save money, with doctors allegedly pressuring patients to choose assisted suicide instead of treatment. There have been reports of MAID due to poverty, lack of adequate housing, a lack of disability-friendly housing, and more.
Veterans have come forward to report being pressured to die while seeking treatment from Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) to help with issues like PTSD, mental illness, and substance abuse. When they finally do seek help, they are told to consider simply dying instead.
Christine Gauthier, a veteran and Paralympian, was one of these veterans, and was offered death when she asked for a wheelchair ramp.
“I have a letter saying that if you’re so desperate, madam, we can offer you MAiD, medical assistance in dying,” Gauthier said. “I was like, ‘I can’t believe that you will… give me an injection to help me die, but you will not give me the tools I need to help me live.’ It was really shocking to hear that kind of comment.”
The Bottom Line:
It was already disturbing enough to know that Canada is encouraging people with suicidal ideation to die; now, it appears that there are proactive efforts to suggest MAID to at-risk populations even before they've begun to consider it.
Utter insanity.
I’d say evil.
They’re trying to get rid of the patriots and conservatives who could and likely would actually fight back if push came to shove.
What better way to take over a country? Get rid of those you deem a threat.
Don’t know why he’s complaining.
He and his mounted colleagues were happy to trample lockdown protesters under the heels of their horse’s hooves.
Euthanasia is a policy of the ‘progressive’ masters they willingly serve.
It’s evil in so many ways, in a socialized medicine country, it’s easier to kill off the elderly and sick than it is to treat them.
In Iceland and the Netherlands, they have virtually eliminated Down Syndrome by aborting babies that test positive.
Getting rid of the useless eaters before they become a burden.

And replace them with third-worlders who will mindlessly vote for “progressives”.
It’s a one-two punch, and probably fatal as far as Canada and the UK are concerned.
Ridiculous comment. The person who sent the email says he retired in 2019.
The fact that some RMCP acted badly doesn’t invalidate the concerns of others about something like euthanasia..
Canada is still a colony of globalist/woke/NWO rump UK empire in London
So you can expect all of their satanic programs to be beta-tested in Canada.
They are if no productive use to the government so they want them dead.
Failed Politicians should take advantage of the euthanasia
Exactly.
> This is the unstated goal of “single payer” government run health care. <
You are correct. Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel (Rahm’s brother) advocates for withholding medical care for anyone over 75. So killing off older folks… it would actually be quite easy.
Now here’s the interesting thing. Former president Jimmy Carter lived to 100. Funny how Dr. Emanuel never said anything about stopping Carter’s medical care.
🤔
(MAID)
?????
(MAID) needs to be religious, rigorously applied to the canadian government.
This isn’t just about The Crown saving on pensions. Who’s exchanging money with the sale of the organs?
I would never listen to anyone suggesting assisted suicide, even if you are on death’s bed. Of course, I will admit that I feel suicide in any form is a sin.
Interesting story, as it would indicate that some medical professional has acted contrary to the laid out guidelines for the MAID program, first and foremost, anyone considering this option has to make the request before any such conversation would begin, there is no such thing as this being routine practice in any part of Canada, but I could imagine where one random health care provider (doctor, nurse, technician etc) might make the suggestion out of ignorance or malice (not everyone likes seniors, I am finding out as I become one, but I knew that a long time ago won’t say how) ... so while I don’t doubt that this incident happened, be aware it’s not some design feature of the MAID program to have the health care system proactively offering it as an alternative to sought out health care and it would be grounds for dismissal if proven.
“Veterans have claimed they are being offered euthanasia when they try to obtain health care.”
Good old universal health care.
Those of you who are living on Government pensions will soon get the same thing in the US. Why? Our nation is out of money
Just think how much money Canada saves by not having to pay pensions to people who commit suicide.
