Canada’s rapidly expanding euthanasia regime is facing explosive new scrutiny after a government hearing revealed “experts” are now openly arguing for assisted suicide to be extended to people suffering from depression and eating disorders.
The disturbing exchange took place during a Special Joint Parliamentary Committee hearing on Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD).
During the hearing, a psychiatrist suggested that even non-terminal mental health conditions could qualify someone for taxpayer-funded, state-assisted death.
Psychiatrist Signals Support for Expanding Euthanasia
During questioning, Conservative MP Andrew Lawton pressed Dr. Mona Gupta on whether individuals with depression or eating disorders should be eligible for euthanasia.
“It depends on the circumstances of the person,” said Gupta, a psychiatrist and professor at the University of Montreal.
Lawton followed up directly: “So it could?”
“Potentially,” Gupta admitted.
The exchange confirmed what critics have been warning for years: Canada’s euthanasia system is steadily expanding beyond terminal illness into mental health and subjective suffering.
Gupta also acknowledged that the concept of “treatment-resistant” illness, often used to justify extreme medical decisions, is not even formally defined within MAiD law.
This issue is raising serious concerns about how eligibility is determined.
Slippery Standards and Subjective Criteria
Under current Canadian law, individuals must have a “grievous and irremediable” condition and experience “enduring and intolerable” suffering.
But as Gupta made clear, those standards are increasingly being interpreted on a case-by-case basis.
“It is difficult to make rules for diagnosis – we have to look at the individual person,” she said.
While she noted that typical medical practice involves exhausting all treatment options, she also suggested that patients could be deemed eligible even if they are unable, or unwilling, to pursue those treatments under certain circumstances.

Real-World Consequences Already Raising Alarm
The hearing comes as reports continue to emerge of Canadians being offered, or steered toward, euthanasia under deeply troubling conditions.
An 84-year-old woman recently revealed she was offered “assisted suicide” in a hospital despite not being terminally ill.
The woman, identified as Miriam, said the doctor tried to pressure her into being euthanized before attempting to determine what was wrong with her.
Miriam said there was “no way” she would agree to “take measures to end” her life.
In another case, a man was euthanized after suffering from partial blindness, fueling outrage over how far the system has already expanded.
Provinces Push Back as Federal Government Expands Program
Some regions are now attempting to draw a line.
In Alberta, Premier Danielle Smith and her United Conservative Party have introduced legislation aimed at restricting access to euthanasia.
The efforts include banning lethal injection for minors and allowing doctors to opt out entirely.
The move is intended to “strengthen protections for vulnerable Albertans.”
It comes as concerns mount over the direction of federal policy.
Meanwhile, Canada’s federal government, under former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and current PM Mark Carney, has dramatically expanded euthanasia access since its legalization in 2016.
The program has grown 13-fold, making it the fastest-growing assisted suicide system in the world.
A System Expanding Faster Than Safeguards
Plans to extend euthanasia to those suffering solely from mental illness were temporarily delayed until 2027 following backlash from medical professionals, advocacy groups, and multiple provinces.
But the latest hearing signals that pressure to expand eligibility is not slowing down.
Canada’s euthanasia program is now the sixth-leading cause of death in the country, marking a staggering shift in less than a decade.
As lawmakers continue debating whether to broaden access even further, critics warn the country is crossing a dangerous line, moving from end-of-life care into state-sanctioned death for society’s most vulnerable.
check: a video show Israeli soldiers throwing children from a rooftop?
Story by Noa Schumann • 14h •A video circulating widely on social media appears to show Israeli soldiers
throwing people from the roof of a building in the West Bank.
The footage has attracted millions of views and gained further traction after it was reshared by South Korea’s president, Lee Jae Myung.
In a post on X, he said he would seek to verify the clip and determine what action, if any, had been taken. He later clarified that the video is genuine and emphasised the need to uphold international humanitarian law.
The footage has been shared online from multiple angles, often accompanied by claims that it shows soldiers throwing children from a building, with some posts also alleging torture or unlawful killings.
Dirty bastard jews
This strikes me as Medicine and Medical Science throwing in the towel. Euthanasia take pressure off Science to find cures and to find ways of prolonging life. Of course there is the moral problem that people without morals never consider. I suppose the attitude is, let ’em go. One less mouth to feed.
Just imagine all the relatives of rich fatties falling over themselves to “justify” offing their “pwoor little suffering loved one”. Meanwhile, the jews in the house of turds are “thinking about” offing the same batch of “useless eaters” in the jew-k. If it’s being”discussed” then they’ve already decided to do it of course. I’m still waiting for a single shitizen to do a single thing. Here’s the current list of worldwide Che Guevaras:
(And don’t bother calling me a “keyboard warrior”. For all you know, I’m one of the heroic land thieves driving around in their tractors claiming to be a victim.)
A right to die is the logical first step to what they really want, the responsibility to die. Once it is law the choice will pass from the individual to a “competent agent” like a judge, a doctor or even a nurse. An agent of the state. This legalised murder will become the biggest cause of death in the west and it will kill millions of us whether we choose it or someone else chooses it for us. People will become deathly afraid of hospitals or having their case heard in court.
No surprise that this ‘test-run’ is taking place in a Crown Colony! 😒
Ooof, get a load of that hideous mongrel…”Dr” Mona Gupta is about as aesthetically pleasing to look at as a pile of steaming pig shit, obviously spurring “enduring and intolerable suffering”. As such, she should be immediately eligible for retroactive abortion.
….likely a blueprint for the rest of the Bwitish Wimpire
As heard in many Canadian retail shopping establishments, “Thanks for using our self-checkout!” Which I’m sure will take on a new depth of meaning and application in due time. I was in a local Walmart the other day and had the pleasure of hearing this over the P.A. numerous times: “Kudda-mah turrvith mann-jah pease kaw tebben-tebben-tebben, two-fy-tebben-tebben” or thereabouts…Indo-Pak-Viet-Chan employees EVERYWHERE. It’s a done deal.
American Conscientious objectors will think twice before fleeing to Canada where their refusal to ‘fight for ersatz israel’ may be considered an irreversible mental illness that mandates putting them ‘to sleep’.
Mona Gupta is an obvious drag-man, tranny.
Canada is a lost country
