Loading ...Trudeau’s brutal euthanasia regime is now targeting poor Indigenous people and vulnerable children
The Trudeau government is hell-bent on expanding government-funded suicide, even at the expense of vulnerable youth and Indigenous communities that it claims to champion.
On October 2, National Review published another bombshell report by Alexander Raikin, one of the best journalists covering the euthanasia and assisted suicide file. Raikin’s reporting is filled with brutal revelations about how euthanasia activists are strategizing to expand the regime to children, the impoverished, and other vulnerable populations. One anecdote in particular stood out to me. In 2018, at the annual conference of the Canadian Association of MAID Assessors and Providers (CAMAP), Raikin noted, the speakers – and activists with Dying with Dignity – laid out how they would undermine Christian institutions and push euthanasia.
“Just two years into Canada’s euthanasia experiment,” he writes, “physicians were busy laying plans for how to expand euthanasia to children, especially Indigenous children, since they ‘are considered wise because they are closest to the ancestors.’” One panel discussed how to best provide “MAID to vulnerable, Indigenous, homeless, and frail elderly populations.” According to one panelist: “I have a First Nation patient who meets all the criteria for MAID, but much of their suffering is due to a life lived in poverty. If I could change their social determinants of health, their situation might improve.”
