Canadian veteran suffering from PTSD and a traumatic brain injury was offered EUTHANASIA when he called Veteran Affairs Canada hotline for help - as Canadian Government orders 'full and thorough' investigation into the case

Canada’s federal government has ordered a ‘full and thorough’ investigation after a Veterans Affairs Canada employee encouraged a veteran to undergo assisted suicide when he called for help.

The Canadian Forces veteran was seeking treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder and a traumatic brain injury when he was casually offered medical assistance in dying (MAiD) in July.

A VAC employee reportedly brought up MAiD unprompted in the conversation with the veteran, who was ‘deeply disturbed’ by the suggestion.

I remember reading stuff like this about the Nazis - that they euthanized many German/Austrian veterans of WWI. However, I don't trust the links that I found when trying to look it up.

The Canadians are in fact vicious fighters. They executed a lot of their captures in WWI and WWII.

I was hesitant to post stuff from that site - another account I read from a gal who lived in a mountain town for a lot of WWII said she knew about a lot of veterans from WWI getting euthanized during the onset of Nazi socialism. Like the disabled people, they disappeared and everyone lost track of them.

(Can’t remember the source, sorry.)

Making things legal can have terrible effects. Legalizing “assisted suicide” makes it be promoted or at least offered as one response to the problem of pain, whether physical or mental.

Such cognitive dissonance; Canada no doubt also operates a secular suicide hotline. He could have called them afterwards. Insanity.

Legalizing prostitution makes it just be one more career choice offered to our teenagers. Legalizing teen sex just makes it much easier to molest and exploit teens, as does legalizing abortion and birth control for minors. Much easier to hide your dirty deeds.

Most grunts will not be shocked at this. Disappointed, but not really that surprised. Government already tried to kill him once... now they are trying again.

I guess at least they had the decency to ask his permission this time. /s

That is true about Hitler, he started his murderous campaign with his own former brothers in arms, disabled vets of WWI. I can’t give you a link but it was discussed on a very straight news documentary I saw years ago. Pretty sad Canada is following those footsteps.

It's where allowing doctor assisted suicide leads.
Also see my tagline.

The right to die, quickly becomes the DUTY to die. In one judo flip, the minute you have the option to be killed, it is seen as selfish to hang on to life.
You are “consuming” medical care. This is especially true where you have socialized healthcare. You are taking healthcare someone young and more useful should have.
Paying for your healthcare? You heirs will decide you are using up “their” inheritance.

The suggestion that it’s an option for you, is actually a not so subtle “suggestion”.

Anyone with a few brain cells knew this was what is in store for Government run heath care here as well.

Everything comes down to money, always has, always will. It’s being practiced here already by insurance companies they just hide it better.

“You have to jump through these 13 hoops before we give you the surgery we know you need, your doctor knows you need, but you have to meet the criteria of our checklist before we ALLOW you it.”

Guess what, a good percentage of people will die during that checklist, which is exactly the plan. 8% die? that’s a year over year 8% increase in revenue directly showing on the bottom line, considering they’re paying their premiums up until the end.

there we go .... governments, both US and Canadian, love dead military members, and wring their hands (both V.A.’s), in anticipation of living veterans kicking off, while noodling what to do with the leftover benefits funds.
