He Wasn’t Terminal — He Was Approved for Death
from The Kelsi Sheren Perspective · host Kelsi Sheren
In this episode of The Kelsi Sheren Perspective, Kelsi and her guest, Alex Schadenberg, delve into the controversial topic of Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) in Canada, particularly focusing on the ethical implications and real-life cases that highlight the potential dangers of the program. They discuss the tragic story of Keanu, a young man who was approved for euthanasia despite not being terminally ill, and the role of doctors like Dr. Ellen Wiebe in these decisions. The conversation emphasizes the alarming trend of euthanasia being normalized in society, especially among vulnerable populations, and raises questions about the motivations behind such practices, including financial incentives and systemic failures in mental health care.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Overview of MAID01:20 The Case of Keanu: A Tragic Euthanasia Story05:40 Ethical Concerns Surrounding Euthanasia10:46 Discrepancies in Euthanasia Practices Across Provinces15:52 The Role of Organizations in Promoting Euthanasia21:31 Manipulation and Coercion in Euthanasia Narratives26:51 The Legal Landscape of Euthanasia in Canada30:24 The Alarming Rise of Euthanasia Cases31:01 Euthanasia Statistics and COVID Comparisons32:45 The Economic Incentives Behind Euthanasia36:22 Organ Donation and Euthanasia Ethics40:11 Redefining Death: The Ethical Dilemma46:37 Witnessing Euthanasia: Emotional Impact and Trauma49:49 Coercion in Euthanasia: A Closer Look - - - - - - - - - - - -One Time Donation! - Paypal - https://paypal.me/brassandunityBuy me a coffee! - https://buymeacoffee.com/kelsisherenLet's connect!Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@thekelsisherenperspectiveInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/thekelsisherenperspective?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw%3D%3DX: https://x.com/KelsiBurnsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kelsie_sheren/Substack: https://substack.com/@kelsisherenTikTok - https://x.com/KelsiBurnsListen on Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/1O3yiobOjThKHtqyjviy1a?si=6c78bdc2325a43aeSUPPORT OUR SPONSORS - - - - - - - - - - - -MasterPeace - 10% off with code KELSI - MasterPeace.Health/KelsiKetone IQ- 30% off with code KELSI - https://ketone.com/KELSIGood Livin - 20% off with code KELSI - https://www.itsgoodlivin.com/?ref=KELSIBrass & Unity - 20% off with code UNITY - http://brassandunity.com- - - - - - - - - - - - -CHARITYHeroic Hearts Project - https://www.heroicheartsproject.orgDefenders of Freedom - https://www.defendersoffreedom.usBoot Campaign - https://bootcampaign.org
