Talk to me about the joys of socialized medicine

Assisted suicides are on the rise in Canada (they call it voluntary euthanasia).

Canada’s spiraling euthanasia system is once again under fire as heartbreaking new accounts reveal that a surging number of patients are being forced into “choosing” the government’s “assisted suicide” death program after being denied actual medical care under the nation’s collapsing socialized healthcare model.

An alarming number of Canadians are reporting that they have no other choice but to agree to be euthanized by the government, despite the supposed availability of treatments for their conditions.

As Slay News has previously reported, the government’s Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) program is now saving tens of millions of dollars a year.

In 2024, the government saved over $136 million by euthanizing patients instead of treating them.

People are being pushed into dying via government action through fear tactics or through denial of care that would allow them to live with dignity, such as home care.

More frightening is the organ ‘donation’ business that is now being piggybacked onto the death program.

Once you are approved for organ donation after medical assistance in dying, BC Transplant will work collaboratively with the critical care team to assist you and your care team with the process of donation.

Organ donation following medical assistance in dying will take place through the pathway of Donation after Cardiocirculatory Death (DCC). At a prearranged time and date, your medical assistance in dying provider will meet you and your care team at the hospital. Every effort will be made to ensure the setting aligns with your end of life wishes. BC Transplant works with the hospital to accommodate as much as possible your requests for rituals, ceremonies and family celebrations at the time of death.

Despite the above, they are trying to claim that the increase in both government-assisted deaths and subsequent organ donations are patient-driven.

He points to statistics showing more than 35 per cent of Canadians who died by MAID in 2021 felt they were “a burden on family, friends or caregivers” according to a Health Canada report.

“I am concerned that people who struggle with a lack of self-esteem and self-worth may be pushed to see this as an opportunity to mean something,” said Lemmens in an email comment to CTV News.

If you read the whole article, you’ll see a discussion about which death drugs to use to keep from harming the organs.

It’s all a money game with the most vulnerable populations being exploited.

  2. Back in the 60’s or early 70’s there was a phrase that went something like “live long enough to be a burden to your children.”

    At the rate Obama care is going, we’ll end up in the same place as our neighbors to the North, sooner rather than later, due to its increasing unaffordability.

    Remember the 37 million that were uninsured because health plans before Obama care were too expensive for low income people who had no employer provided health insurance? That number never changed and has increased since.

    Recent reports indicate that the premium for a family of four under Obama care is going to be something like $3000.00/mth//36K/yr next year.

    Who the hell can afford that on even a low six figure salary?

    Reports on numbers of uninsured during the Bribem administration showed a decrease over the period, if you can believe any statistic that came out of any .gov agency during that time or any time, under Demonrats, going back generations.

    Trump is making noises like he wants to fix it. Good luck with that. I hope he can pull it off.

    IMHO, there’s no way unless the GOP cleans house of current RINOs AND wins a landslide during the mid terms. A daunting task, especially when the deep state, in collusion with big banks and the fed, crash the stock market and the economy next year so that they can blame Trump and stymie the rest of his agenda because that’s the only way they can. They can’t win on their current platform and they know it.

    Oh, you don’t think there’s a crash coming? The stock market is already WWAAYY overpriced according to everything I read, with P/E ratio’s in the dirt, and is showing signs of cracks.

    Not to mention the housing market is also outrageously priced due to all of the illegals here BUYING UP PROPERTIES in less affluent areas that used to go to low income U.S. citizens. When they get rounded up and deported who’s going to pay off those mortgages, so that the banks don’t go under like 1929 or 2008?

    Can you say BAILOUT, again?

    Over the last couple of months, there has been news of large numbers of layoffs in large companies across the country. This despite Trump’s repeated assertions of massive investment in plants and equipment from foreign countries as part of his tariff deals. Those large companies are preparing for a significant business downturn next year, otherwise they wouldn’t be laying people off.

    Sorry I went off on a tangent there, but all of that stuff is interconnected in today’s world. A crack in one sets off a whole chitload of dominoes, not just here, either.

    That’s one of the stealthy reasons for cancel culture.

    Can’t have truth sayers in major parts of the economy telling anyone things aren’t as rosy as TPTB are saying because panic might tip the first domino. That’s also the reason Scott Bessent, Trump’s Treasury Secretary, has been going on all of the talk shows and doing interviews where ever they’ll take him. He’s the ra ra guy for Trump’s economy with all of the facts, figures and legislative insight on what happening under the hood. I hope to god he’s not just blowing smoke up our collective keeks.

    As I write this, the Dow is down $478.00 or 1% on the day, so far. The yield on T-Bills is declining and has been for a couple years.

    Locally, my taxes just went up another $500.00 and my electric bill is up 36% over the last six months with even a slight decrease in the juice used during the same period a year ago.

    That SS COLA for 2026 of a predicted 2.8%, ain’t cuttin’ it.

    Cracks. Cracks everywhere.

  3. “Voluntary euthanasia”. Don’t you just love how stinking commies always try to polish a turd in this fashion? If this is the system Canadians (and we, ultimately) will be forced into, then one key point is that one should never take the assisted suicide offered by the system. If that was to be my forced outcome, I’d do it myself in a location and at a time that would assure I wasn’t found until I was a stiff.

    That, at least, would deprive these ghoulish bastards the pleasure of being the ones to kill me (via their functionaries). It would also preclude them from the opportunity to further exploit (and profit from) my carcass by forcing me to “donate” organs. I’d make damn sure there was nothing suitable to harvest, because fuck ’em. They’ll get nothing from me, as my final protest.

  4. Anyone who has ever had to use government run medical care is against it. Ask any GI or VA user, myself included. No hospital, clinic or med center wants to hire theguy who graduated last in the class, eventhough that guy’s called doctor just like the guy who graduated tops. Those last place guys usually end up in the military, the public health centers & the charity hospitals. You get the care you pay for.

  7. When they can swap organs as easily and successfully as swapping an engine or transmission in a car, then you can bet your bottom dollar that the death penalty will be brought back so quickly your eyes will be going Tic Tac Toe for a month. And none of these old, decrepit people being harvested for organs. Nope, it will be the young, healthy ones that will be prome donors.

    Do you think for one moment that someone like Nancy Pelosi would hesitate to extend her life and vitality by cannibalising the organs of someone much younger? Compile your own list of political vampires. If so I have a bridge for sale …

    Robert Silverberg wrote “Caught in the Organ Draft” way back in 1972. It is chilling in its implications and the only anomaly is that the American young were fleeing to Canada of all places. Still, he got it right (in my opinion).

  8. I would have to go digging for the statistics, but at one point in the recent past, you were 1.85 times more likely to be deliberately killed by a Canadian doctor via MAiDS than to be killed by a firearm (any reason) in the United States. The numbers have only gotten worse for MAiDS.
