Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID)
In a second case, the same doctor failed to administer one of three drugs used in assisted deaths and the patient resumed spontaneously breathing after being pronounced dead
A London, Ont., doctor who assessed a patient with inflammatory bowel disease and a history of mental health issues for MAID outside a Tim Hortons location and later personally drove the man to the place his life was ended has agreed to a minimum six months’ supervision.
Article content In another case, Dr. James MacLean failed to administer one of three drugs used in assisted deaths — one that paralyzes the body’s muscles, including the muscles involved in breathing. The patient resumed spontaneously breathing again after initially being pronounced dead, and after MacLean had already left the home.
As first reported Monday by the The Globe and Mail, the doctor’s case is raising new concerns about MAID’s oversight and accountability.
“What is striking is not only the seriousness of the concerns identified in these cases, but the limited regulatory response,” said Dr. Ramona Coelho, a family physician and former member of the Office of the Chief Coroner of Ontario’s MAID death review committee.
Article content As part of an investigation by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO) into two public complaints made against MacLean, an independent assessor appointed to review a number of MacLean’s charts concluded that he “did not meet the standard of practice of the profession, displayed a lack of judgment and that his conduct exposes or is likely to expose patients to harm or injury in five out of twenty charts reviewed,” according to a summary decision of the college’s inquiries, complaints and reports committee.

Another Great Liberal(Trudeau) Government’s idea
Bunch of ghouls.

Nice Pandora’s Box you opened up there, Canada.
Canada was created by the British Empire to be a bulwark and thorn against the United States
For many decades they didn’t think it necessary to activate it.
Now they do.
At least the doctor had the kindness to not require the patient to make an appointment and visit the office.
Odd, I haven’t seen Death on any Tim Horton’s menu. Must be a secret menu like some Chinese places have.
“Well, excuse me!”
OUTSIDE Tim Hortons.............
Maybe it was the drive thru
Making that death quota eh doc?
Come for the Timbits, stay for the lung paralyzing poison.
Shouldn’t the title state from and not of? Of implies it is something you catch.
😁🙄......................................
Josef Mengele lives. The German Nazis lost WW II but now Germany dominates the EU and their barbaric ethics have been adopted by many.
Either way, he’s dead, Jim.................
Imagine the conversation outside the restaurant:
MAN: Hey Doc! I want to die!
DOC: What’s your ailment?
MAN: I got Irritable Bowel Syndrome!
DOC: Okay, you’re good to go!................
That’s the sad truth.
Tim Hortons coffee is so bad, just prescribe it to the guy who wants to die. It’ll work.
How long before they change the law to allow a cop to shoot and kill a person who survives a botched MAID procedure?
After all, when an abortion doesn’t go as planned, (the baby survives) they kill it or let it die.
