President Donald Trump was handed his first budget deficit of his second administration. While the Treasury Department did not release fiscal numbers due to the government shutdown, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) published the September budget review. The report determined that the federal government registered back-to-back $1.8 trillion shortfalls for fiscal year 2025. The Good […]

The assisted suicide policy has always rested on a slippery slope. Western societies are now fully in the organ harvesting stage on the road to the bottom of this hill.

In September, the National Post reported that a 59-year-old Pittsburgh man with congestive heart failure received a working heart from a 38-year-old who had Lou Gehrig’s disease.

The young donor didn’t die of natural causes. He was killed through Canada’s Medical Assistance in Dying, or MAID, program.

After the 38-year-old Canadian man was killed by medical professionals using “life-ending drugs,” the National Post reported, his “heart was removed, attached to a special machine that ‘reanimates’ or restarts hearts to keep blood flowing through the organs while keeping them warm, and then transported to Pittsburgh, where the transplant took place.”

The Post reported that “organ donation after voluntary euthanasia has been called the ultimate act of altruism, a gesture that could bring a profound sense of psychological comfort and solace to those seeking assisted death.”

However, it noted what should be obvious, that “organ donation and assisted dying is ethically fraught.”

That’s an understatement.

The Post continued to note, “Concerns have been raised that vulnerable people might feel pressured to proceed with MAID, even if they’re having a change of heart, if they know people are waiting for their organs.”

The story is “good” for the man who received a heart. But what’s ultimately to stop pressure from being applied to patients with terminal conditions, or who are simply old and infirm, from taking the potentially cheaper option to kill themselves and provide their organs to other “useful” members of society?

The logic of assisted suicide is leading us to that point.

Canada passed the assisted suicide law in 2016 and since that time it has become one of the leading causes of death for our “nice” neighbors up north. According to the BBC, in 2023 nearly 5% of all deaths in the country were attributed to MAID. That’s one in 20 to drive home the point. The number of suicides goes up every year as the categories of who it can be administrated to continue to expand.

No surprise, Canada leads in the world in organ donation from state-sanctioned suicides.

Concern about health professionals pressuring patients to kill themselves is absolutely on the table, as an excellent recent article in The Atlantic of all places pointed out.

Elaina Plott Calabro wrote that while it’s too soon to call assisted suicide a “lifestyle option” in Canada, it absolutely has momentum.

MAID began as a practice limited to gravely ill patients who were already at the end of life. The law was then expanded to include people who were suffering from serious medical conditions but not facing imminent death. In two years, MAID will be made available to those suffering only from mental illness. Parliament has also recommended granting access to minors.

The brakes have failed. They’ve barreling down that slippery slope.

“In Canada, it is no longer a novel and remarkable event,” Calabro wrote. “As of 2023, the last year for which data are available, some 60,300 Canadians had been legally helped to their death by clinicians. In Quebec, more than 7 percent of all deaths are by euthanasia—the highest rate of any jurisdiction in the world.”

Some physicians in the country, now ideologically wedded to the idea that state-sanctioned suicide is all about “autonomy,” are clearly taking on the practice with unnerving zeal.

Calabro interviewed Stefanie Green, a physician from Vancouver, who compared administering suicide drugs as akin to delivering babies. She calls the people who’ve been killed “deliveries.”

That attitude is becoming more common according to Calabro as the laws are now behind where the country is going. The MAID advocates, she wrote, “push for expansion in terms that brook no argument, refracted through the language of equality, access, and compassion.”

Through the lens of empathy and compassion, Canada is running a mass euthanasia experiment that was out of bounds even in Nazi Germany.

Why is it that Canada is going this way?

Mike Sabo, writing for American Reformer, said it well.

“Underlying Canada’s open embrace of assisted suicide is the same principle behind transgenderism: a radical understanding of autonomy,” Sabo wrote. “Doctors are merely to follow patients’ wishes without much, if any, pushback, a deep irony in an age that purportedly values expertise.”

I’d argue that doctors will soon be doing the pushing too as the state benefits from offing parts of the population will grow as Canada and other Western societies age.

It presents a bleak future, a moral Dark Age. Canada may have chosen its fate already, but we desperately need to reverse course on this movement and stop the slide to evil here in the United States.
