All governments devolve into tyranny. Give them the power to kill people for a “good reason,” like assisted suicide, and it will inevitably deteriorate into outright murder. From Frank Bergman at slatenews.com:
Canada’s euthanasia regime has claimed yet another young life after a 26-year-old man suffering from depression was euthanized by the government’s assisted death program, despite previously being rejected for the lethal injection by a doctor who said he was too “young and healthy” to be killed.
The devastating revelation was shared by his mother, Margaret Marsilla, in a heartbreaking Facebook post, who accused the socialized healthcare system’s doctors of using a “loophole” to kill her son.
Marsilla announced that her son, Kiano, had been killed through the Canadian government’s Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) system.
After previous failed attempts to euthanize Kiano for diabetes and visual impairment, he was eventually killed for “depression,” which was classified as “mental illness,” according to his devastated mom.
“With a broken heart, I am sharing that my baby boy Kiano passed away … after being euthanized,” Marsilla wrote.
The death was approved by Ellen Wiebe, a Vancouver abortionist and euthanasia practitioner, according to Marsilla.
Wiebe, also known as “Dr. Death,” has ended the lives of more than 400 patients.
Kiano was first diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes when he was four and later became visually impaired.
In adult life, he struggled with depression brought on by his condition.
Four years earlier, his mother successfully intervened to stop a scheduled euthanasia in Ontario.
