Best of 2022: Killing off the sad and the poor with MAID

from Full Comment · host Postmedia

Over the holidays, we’re looking back at some of the best episodes of 2022. With disturbing recent developments in the federal Liberals’ medical assistance in dying (MAID) regime, including government workers pushing it on injured veterans, and doctors pondering euthanizing babies, we’re revisiting our interview with Dr. Sonu Gaind. He’s supporter of MAID for those suffering terminal illnesses. He’s even the physician chair of the MAID team at Toronto’s Humber River Hospital, where he’s chief of psychiatry. But he’s grown alarmed since Canada stopped requiring a reasonably foreseeable death for euthanasia, as he tells host Anthony Furey. People who are poor, lonely or battling mental illnesses, whose lives might get better with help, are being offered a lethal injection instead. And children could be next.
