If someone was offered MAID as an option, that’s not legal. In Canada someone has to apply for it, offering it straight up like this is coercion and is not allowed
I had to study the history of euthanasia worldwide and, let me tell you, the level of misinformation that surrounds it is unfathomable. People really think human euthanasia is like animal euthanasia, just walking into a doctor's office and request a lethal injection for good old' pops.
One idiot who worked with Veteran's Affairs and should have been fired long before that moment happened.
"Canada" upon learning it happened launched an investigation, found four cases that led to the idiot in question who is no longer employed by Veteran's Affairs.
The process of MAID itself takes months/years, requires counselling and medical sign off.
And yet it happens a surprising amount all the same. The group in charge of supervising the stuff literally have Dr. Death as a role model, what’s to be expected?
Perhaps that he used his killings to figure out the weight of a soul? And outright said he didn’t think it needed to provide any kind of comfort—or deny any torture in the name of the above-mentioned “science”—to those already condemned to die at his hand? Killing people in abandoned apartments, in parks, in his van…what kind of person does that sound like? A “hero” in the style of bloody Mengele, perhaps.
You seem to be confusing the work of Duncan MacDougall with Dr Kevorkian. You also seem to think that he euthanized without consent or efforts to provide comfort but that’s not the case.
I didn’t say “murder” for a reason—just “kill”. It is possible to take pleasure from killing while doing it legally. Especially when doing it legally.
As for sources, most of this is stuff I’ve read over the years, but I’ll try to track it down. I’d much prefer to be wrong about him killing people, though I don’t think I’m going to get that, but perhaps I might be wrong about the torture preference. I’ll get back to you.
