Satan Must Be So Proud of His Minions

 Eric Utter at the American Thinker today has a story telling us Canada's devolvement into Socialist government is truly evil. The story is entitled Canada's "expert" panel recommends the mentally ill be candidates for euthanasia.

Canada’s medical assistance in dying (MAiD) law is already the most permissive euthanasia and assisted-suicide legislation in the world.

Understandably controversial in itself, there are many horror stories surrounding its implementation. For example, as lifesitenews.com recently reported,

A 71-year-old widower was admitted to a Southwestern Ontario hospital after a fall. His family says during his admission he contracted an infectious diarrheal illness. He was humiliated by staff for the smell of his room, his family said. He developed a new shortness of breath that was not comprehensively assessed. In this context, a hospital team member suggested he would qualify for MAiD. The team said he had end-stage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and it was terminal. The patient was surprised by the diagnosis but trusted the team. Within 48 hours of his first assessment, he received a medically assisted death. Post-mortem testing showed he did not have end-stage COPD. His family doctor, when notified of his death, also stated he did not have end-stage COPD, but the team had failed to contact her when they were assessing his history.

Oops. Sorry.

Oops indeed. The doctors involved should have at the very least lost their licenses, and perhpas been put in prison. After all, they had murdered this man. But because it was "legal" no charges were preferred.

Nonetheless, the Great White North’s federal “expert” panel on MAiD has recommended mental illness be added to the list of maladies making one eligible for MAiD……apparently without any legislative changes. How nice, euthanasia by administrative fiat. What could go wrong?

To some degree, mental illness is in the eye of the beholder. It can be quite subjective and has historically been used as a tool to advance totalitarian political agendas. Hence, the gulags and “re-education camps.” Don’t believe in global warming? Are you an anti-vaxxer? Trump supporter?! Didn’t vote for Xi jinping Justin Trudeau? Driving an 18-wheeler in a “Freedom Convoy?” Then you are, sadly, mentally ill.

The addition of the "mentally ill" to the list of those who can be murdered by doctors working for the state is fitting. Since the Soviet era, mental illness has been used as an excuse by the government to target those who dissent. Often, these dissenters have simply been thrown into institutions. But Canada is taking it to a who new level with the killing of these dissenters by the state under the guise of "euthanasia." Satan must be so proud of his minions.
