On Thursday, another Canadian veteran, Christine Gauthier, who is also a five-time world champion at the Paralympics, told how she was offered medical assistance in dying (MAID) as she tried to access care from the Veterans Affairs department.
Gauthier now makes at least six injured veterans who were asking for help from Veteran Affairs but instead got an offer of MAID.
Another former soldier on Thursday told MPs that the state of Veteran Affairs was “apocalyptic” and painted a picture of hopelessness.
Bruce Moncur had five per cent of his brain removed following an injury suffered in 2006 during Operation Medusa in Afghanistan, one of the deadliest operations in recent Canadian history.
“There’s a lot of frustration and futility that goes with trying to navigate through Veterans Affairs. And eventually it causes soldiers to lose hope and think about taking their lives. And it’s the triple D policy: delay, deny (and) dead veterans cost no money,” he told a parliamentary committee on veterans.
If we can’t give adequate care to our veterans (who are supposed to have a whole government department to look after them) what about other vulnerable members of society?
The same government that promised to sue veterans?
None of this is a surprise as people were warned and refused to listen.
Canada is not a land of opportunity but a tinpot dictatorship where lives are held cheap.
Also:
Canada is not ready to expand medical assistance in dying for people with a mental disorder, leaving psychiatrists across the country “incredibly concerned” about patients needing better access to care, including for addiction services, says a group representing the specialists across the country.
Oh, why bother at this point?

Disability activists and scholars are noticing that MAiD is “Normalizing death as ‘therapy’ in Canada.” They want to kill disabled babies. They see death as “treatment” for disability. It’s certainly also possible that it’s a cheaper way for the government to try to balance the budget, instead of continuing to lie about the fiscal viability and health of Canada’s federal pension plan (CPP). Kill the citizens, and bill it right back to them-what could possibly be wrong with that? The Canadian government even has fancy infographics to explain the wicked democide program.
How did Canada go from the previous incarnation of courage and dignity to a Culture of Death?
There are indicators all around us, and not just in Canada.
Hints of moral and cultural decline are everywhere in America and in almost every Western culture across the globe. We live in a culture where parents of disabled children need to wait in their car the entire day to ensure their kids can use a bathroom. A continent where feeding infants and healing them from illness is oddly not a societal priority. A place where paedophilia is being normalized by some corporate brands and “Medical Assistance in Dying,” Maid, i.e. government sponsored murder; the extinguishing of human life is literally celebrated by other corporate brands.
As a result of the Trudeau Liberals’ governance, Canada now holds the unenviable position of being one of the world leaders not just in economic decline but also in complete moral decrepitude and decay. The Canadian MAiD program should be taken as a warning to any and all remaining civilized countries that you are next. It remains to be seen if the Canadian Culture of Death can be reversed. If not, Canada certainly cannot and will not be redeemed.

What? They didn't kill her to save some money?:
An unborn baby was treated through her umbilical cord for a rare genetic condition—the same disease that killed her two older siblings—and the pioneering procedure prevented the infant’s death.
It’s the first time in history Pompe disease has been treated in utero, and it could represent a life-saving new standard of care that’s safe and effective for both mother and infant.
In Canada, the parents of 16-month-old Ayla were relieved when she was born as expected, with no signs of the disease that can cause lethal heart complications. Pompe affects fewer than 1 in 100,000 infants, but this inherited condition arising from a defective gene copy is often fatal.
Treatment so far starts after birth, is known as enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), and plays the role of injecting an enzyme critical for healthy heart function. Pompe disease is known as a “lysosomal storage disorder” and results in the buildup of toxins in tissues. The replacement enzyme is called GAA, and since fetuses and infants like Ayla can’t produce it, toxic buildups of glycogen, the storage form of sugars like glucose, can damage the heart and lead to myocarditis.
The glycogen makes it harder for their small hearts to pump blood, leading to muscle weakness, and death is typical within 2 years.
In March of 2021, Ayla’s mother entered an Ottawa maternal hospital and over the following weeks received 6 injections of an infant-Pompe drug called alglucosidase alfa into the umbilical vein, a delivery method that’s established for treating anemia in a fetus.
Ayla was born on schedule without any signs of the disease. She’s met normal developmental milestones and doesn’t show any loss of motor function. She still receives regular ERT. The results were compiled and published in the New England Journal of Medicine.
