The narrative that MAiD provides a peaceful, beautiful death every time is false.
One patient cried "help me" and showed signs of distress during MAiD. Bradley Stewart resumed breathing after being declared dead, leaving his family traumatized. In one study, one-third of family members described the MAiD death as traumatic.
Informed consent requires disclosure of complications and adverse outcomes, not just promises of a beautiful death.

Did you know that Ontario Premier @fordnation's chief coroner has noted at least 428 possible criminal violations of MAID laws since 2016. Yet not a single one has been referred to law enforcement.
Why do euthanasia doctors who go outside the bounds of our expansive MAiD laws get such leniency?

The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario wants you to know MAiD is “a highly regulated area of medical practice with well-defined expectations”. That's why when a doctor met a patient at a donut shop then personally chauffeured him to be euthanized, they placed him "under three months of moderate supervision".

In Canada, you can botch killing your patient, return later to finish the job, and get less of a reprimand than selling raw milk, speeding, or killing a bat.
The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario needs to take this more seriously.

In Canada we're so careful with MAiD that when Dr. "Death + Donuts" MacLean had to return to kill his patient who "resumed spontaneous breathing” because he forgot to bring all the drugs when he euthanized him the 1st time, the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario "cautioned" him!
Canada’s ‘Dr. Death and Donuts’ practices at the same clinic as my family physician. My own child has been treated by him.
Here's an article I wrote in @FDRLST about the new Canadian "double double": euthanasia on every street corner, as common as Tim Horton's donuts.

Imagine you need healthcare in London, Ontario. You go to the clinic, check in, wait for the doctor. When the door finally opens Dr. Death and Donuts steps in the room, closes the door, and you're alone with him.
How do you feel, what do you do?
@GadSaad@elonmusk Gotta read this after I learned this week a doctor at my family's clinic did a MAiD assessment at Tim Horton's then chauffeured the man to the place he was euthanized. With empathy like that, who wants healthcare?
