@ChicagosMayor@Pontifex@VaticanNews You truly have no shame, or humility, nor follow the teachings of the Church. Vile political comments while you‘re there & I’d bet you didn’t even have courage to discuss your hypocrisy & evil position on abortion & murdering innocent life.
Canada has euthanized almost 100,000 people.
It all started in 2016.
Instead of investing in more care, support, and hope for people who are suffering, the Canadian government legalized assisted suicide through a program called Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID).
From the beginning, it was presented as a “last resort” for people with serious illnesses — treating death as the answer to suffering instead of offering true compassion, care, and support.
But nearly ten years later, the program has expanded far beyond that.
Today, people with disabilities, chronic illnesses, loneliness, and even mental health struggles are increasingly being offered death instead of real help and support.
And the numbers continue to rise:
Ontario’s latest MAID report showed a 7.2% increase in euthanasia deaths from 2024 to 2025.
Analysts estimate that about 17,650 Canadians died through euthanasia in 2025 alone.
Across Canada, MAID deaths rose another 6.9% between 2024 and 2025.
Since the program began, more than 94,000 Canadians have died through euthanasia.
At the current pace, Canada is expected to surpass 100,000 euthanasia deaths in 2026.
These numbers are alarming; assisted suicide is no longer rare in Canada. In fact, about 1 in every 20 deaths now happens through euthanasia.
Even more concerning, many of these patients were not close to dying. Some were living with disabilities, chronic illnesses, or emotional suffering.
Several heartbreaking stories have raised even more serious concerns about the program.
In one case, a woman was euthanized after her husband said he was exhausted from caring for her. In another case, a man struggling with loneliness and a medical condition chose euthanasia instead of receiving deeper support and care. Another woman reportedly left Canada to seek cancer treatment elsewhere after being told assisted suicide was her only option.
These stories point to a painful reality: many vulnerable people are choosing MAID not because death is their only option, but because they feel abandoned, unsupported, or unable to get the help they truly need.
Rather than strengthening support systems, Canada continues pushing to expand euthanasia eligibility even further. Leaders have worked for years to allow MAID for people whose only condition is mental illness.
That means someone suffering from severe depression, anxiety, or an eating disorder could potentially qualify for assisted suicide.
Medical Assistance in Dying is already a deeply troubling practice. Expanding it to people struggling with mental illness raises even more serious moral and medical concerns. Those facing depression, anxiety, or emotional suffering need compassion, treatment, and real support — not a system that presents death as the answer to their pain.
Canada’s experience should serve as a warning to the rest of the world.
True compassion does not end suffering by ending a life. Every human being has inherent dignity and value, regardless of age, disability, illness, or circumstance.

I read about 2 saints per day in my spiritual reading.
They all faced unbelievable hardships. Most were murdered.
None complained.
That's why the Franklin high school graduates tug at my ❤️.
They don't complain.
It's a great story.
I ❤️ these kids.
They inspire me.
🚨 Washington Nationals Director of Community Relations admits on hidden camera to ongoing religious discrimination against starting pitcher Trevor Williams over his outspoken Catholic faith.
“One of our pitchers, Trevor Williams. He’s super Christian-Catholic...”
“The Dodgers had a group… who were drag queens who sometimes dressed up as nuns. He went on social media like… ‘This is my religion. You all are mocking it.’”
“Because of that, we [Washington Nationals] don’t use him on social [media].”
What was his crime to deserve this punishment?
Williams stood up when the LA Dodgers chose to honor a group infamous for mocking Our Lord, Our Lady, the Eucharist, priests, and religious sisters.
And now a Nationals executive has reportedly admitted that, because Williams is “very Catholic” and spoke out, “we don’t use him on social.”
This is CLEARLY religious discrimination.
