Euthanasia

Canada Begins Euthanizing Veterans to Cut Back on Costly Treatments– slaynews.com

The Canadian government is now pressuring military veterans into “assisted suicide” in order to relieve the burden on the nation’s socialized taxpayer-funded healthcare system.

Veterans who require costly treatments are now being pushed into being euthanized under the government’s “Medical Assistance in Dying” (MAiD) program.

The news comes as the United Kingdom edges closer to passing its own euthanasia laws.

Kelsi Sheren, a Canadian Armed Forces veteran injured in Afghanistan, is calling on UK citizens to take a stand against the legalization of euthanasia.

Sheren is highlighting cases where disabled veterans have been encouraged to consider assisted suicide.

She served as an artillery gunner in the Canadian Armed Forces.

“During my deployment, I was sent outside the wire to work alongside the British military in OP TORA ARWA,” Sheren revealed.

“That mission changed my life.

“I was injured and medically released in 2011 with PTSD, hearing loss, and a traumatic brain injury (TBI).

“Today, I live as a 100% disabled combat veteran.”

Bill Gates Calls for ‘Death Panels’ to Euthanize Citizens Not ‘Worthy of Healthcare’– slaynews.com

Excerpt:

As nations around the world push to introduce and expand liberal euthanasia laws, the plans are sounding eerily similar to the “assisted suicide” agenda billionaire Bill Gates has been promoting for several years.

The Microsoft co-founder argues that it is not cost-effective to provide individuals with long-term healthcare.

Instead, Gates believes his fellow human beings should be euthanized to reduce healthcare costs so that the money that would have been used for treatments can be spent elsewhere.

In 2010, Gates weighed up the cost of keeping “terminally ill” Americans alive versus paying for teachers’ salaries.

Gates lamented that Americans are unwilling to question if spending money on people in “the last three months” of their lives was cost-effective.

He suggested there wasn’t a benefit in end-of-life care and a decision should be made to end people’s lives instead of providing costly palliative care.

He argued that a panel of bureaucrats should decide whether a person deserves to receive treatment, with those who are not “worthy of healthcare” being euthanized by the government to save money.

“That’s called the ‘death panel’,” he said of the group who would decide whether people get to live or die.

Gates made the remarks during an interview at an Aspen Ideas Festival in 2010.

Harvest Organs From Euthanasia Victims Before Death– thefederalist.com

Excerpt:

Canadian doctors have suggested killing euthanasia victims by taking their organs, according to multiple reports, whistleblowers, and public talks. Medical freedom advocates are documenting emerging ties between “medical assistance in dying” (MAID) and organ harvesting.

“The best use of my organs, if I’m going to receive a medically assisted death, might be to not first kill me and then retrieve my organs, but to have my mode of death — as we medically consider death now — to be to retrieve my organs,” said Rob Sibbald, an ethicist of the London Health Sciences Centre in Ontario.

Sibbald spoke on “Threats to the Concept of Brain Death: Ethical Reflections” at the Critical Care Canada Forum in November 2018. The event was sponsored by Canadian Blood Services, a tissue and organ donation group; the Trillium Gift of Life Network, which is “responsible for delivering and coordinating organ and tissue donation and transplantation across the province” of Ontario; and the Canadian Donation and Transplantation Research Program, which hopes to “increase the availability of transplants.”

Other Canadian doctors have publicly embraced “death by donation,” and a study came out earlier this year exploring euthanasia programs such as MAID as a means of organ harvesting. Canada legalized euthanasia in 2016, and since then the number of Canadians using MAID to kill themselves has significantly increased.

The Canadian government’s official statistics show that the number of citizens killed by euthanasia surged by 16% in 2023.

The alarming figures were revealed in Health Canada’s newly published fifth annual “Medical Assistance in Dying” (MAID) review.

The report shows that a staggering 15,300 Canadians were euthanized in 2023.

The figure totals 4.7 percent of the roughly 320,000 deaths in the country.

The report stated that the majority of the euthanasia deaths, 95.9 percent, were “Track 1” deaths.

New data obtained from Alberta, Ontario, and Quebec reveals 15,300 Canadians legally committed physician-assisted suicide, which accounted for 4.7 percent of Canadian deaths. Canada also leads the world in organ donations through euthanasia, mostly due to a law that makes every Canadian an organ donor upon death unless they explicitly request not to be.

(Euthanasia Prevention Coalition) — On February 6, 2024, after obtaining the euthanasia data from Alberta, Ontario, and Québec, the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition published an article stating that there were approximately 15,300 euthanasia (MAiD) deaths in Canada in 2023.

On July 8, 2024 we published an article with links to the euthanasia data from Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Nova Scotia, Ontario, and Québec. We again predicted that there were about 15,300 euthanasia deaths in 2023.

On December 11, 2024, Canada’s Ministry of Health released the Fifth Annual Report on Medical Assistance in Dying which indicates that there were 15,343 reported euthanasia deaths representing 4.7 percent of all deaths in 2023.

Why did Canada’s Ministry of Health wait until December 2024 to release the 2023 euthanasia data when the report essentially concerns numbers and data while lacking information on the actual reason for people wanting to be killed by euthanasia?

Interesting data in the report:

  • Of the 15,343 reported euthanasia deaths: 95.9 percent were Track 1 deaths (the person was deemed to have a terminal condition); 4.1 percent were Track 2 deaths (the person was deemed as not having a terminal condition).
  • People with disabilities accounted for 33.5 percent of the Track 1 euthanasia deaths and 58.3 percent of the Track 2 euthanasia deaths. In 2022, 27 percent of Canadians were people with one or more disabilities. People with disabilities are over-represented in Canada’s euthanasia statistics.
  • 95.8 percent of those who died by euthanasia were Caucasian (White) while fewer than 1 percent were First Nations people. In 2022, 69.8 percent of Canadians euthanized were Caucasian and 5 percent were First Nations people.
