The latest shocking “medical assistance in dying” (MAiD) report from Canada reveals that 622 of the MAiD deaths that occurred in 2023 never should have been approved at all, as they did not meet the standard requirements by law.
In an analysis, CTV News correspondent Kamil Karamali noted that the 622 deaths fell into a category known as “Track 2,” in which the patient still had the possibility of living a long life, but chose MAiD for other reasons. However, he said, while a “terminal” illness is no longer necessary by law, the patient must still have a “serious or incurable illness, disease or disability,” and be facing “an advanced state of irreversible decline in capability,” and “have enduring and intolerable physical or psychological suffering that cannot be alleviated under conditions the person considers acceptable.”
According to Karamali, those 622 deaths did not meet these specifications.

There is no such thing as a guardrail in liberalism. It’s why liberals always go to far, despite “meaning well”.
Yes, instead of liberals asking why a wall was erected in the first place, they bring a bulldozer pre-emtively to destroy.
Remember when everyone laughed at Sarah Palin when she said government-run health-care ends in “death panels?”
Literally warned and predicted with 100% certainty.
Nothing more than state sanctioned murder for economics and convenience.
No one can say they were not warned or had no reason the believe this would happen.
The entire, long-standing “do no harm” ethic of physicians has been stood on its head.
It’s absolutely no surprise, especially in countries that have socialized medicine, it’s much cheaper to kill off the old and sick that to take care of them.
Just like the Nazis the Liberals believe that people who disagree with them are useless eaters.
Camel and tent.
The medical industry easily falls into systems of atrocity. You can’t even stop them from electroshocking people’s brains out. Or mutilating children in sick Nazi experiments.

Some ‘mistakes’, you don’t get a Mulligan.
I do remember! And they did!
Does this also include the female vet who was asking for money to build a ramp for her wheelchair, got denied, and referred to MAiD? /s
Exactly,
In the bible (Books of Daniel and Revelation) wicked governments and evil kingdoms are called ‘Beasts’ this is the anti-Christ Beast system rising up for the last days in Canada. They will bring it to the USA at first opportunity to do so. They worship death. Canada is all in on the CCP model. They installed Justin Castro just like they had wanted to install their tool Tim Walz here.

That’s why I just can’t vote for it whenever it comes up for vote here. Appealing as it is as we age, the issues of coercion of varying degrees and for varying reasons is just too dangerous.
I am certain that the only way to stop this demonic behavior is for man to turn to God and recognize that only He creates life. God has gifted us free-will, but this freedom comes with strict limitations, one being the Creator’s commandment not to kill. Why anyone would violate that command at the critical moment of his or her own passing is beyond my comprehension.
Odds are Castro’s little bastid cheers this since a lot of non-commie trash were in the kill list.
Ends justifies the means to these sort of people. That is all that matters. If it decreases the health care charge by even a little amount he can point at that as an example of how Canadian healthcare is cheaper than US.
Yup. What it advertised as voluntary soon becomes mandatory.
Government murder that is going to metastasize into horror if it is not stopped. The German medical profession played a central role in shaping and implementing many Nazi policies. A high number of doctors and nurses supported the regime, and many became complicit in Nazi crimes.
Roughly half of all German doctors became members of the Nazi Party and its organizations between 1933 and 1945. Some German physicians welcomed the Nazi regime because it supported their beliefs about “racial hygiene.” Others joined to take advantage of opportunities to advance their careers. Many doctors either actively or passively benefited from the regime’s dismissal of their Jewish colleagues and the “Aryanization” of their profession.
German doctors and medical scientists helped shape Nazi Germany’s racial laws. Many became involved in Nazi crimes. The Nazi regime used medical research to shape its racial definitions and rationalize its discriminatory policies. Many doctors participated in forcible sterilizations, human experimentation, or the so-called “euthanasia” of people with mental and physical disabilities.
The real issue here is who makes the decision about death. You, family, government, a regulation, a committee?
The doctor came to us after my 97 year old mother had no hope of recovery and suggested we give her morphine to ease the pain. I knew what it was about.
Death decisions remain, they cannot be avoided. There are no simple answers.
