SEEKING EUTHANASIA? HARVESTING YOUR ORGANS? THE CANADIAN GOVERNMENT WELCOMES YOU WITH OPEN ARMS!
What occurred once, it shall occur again, And what was done, it shall be done again. There is nothing at all new under the sun. – Ecclesiastes 1:9

A new Canadian Medical Association Journal article updates recommendations for doctors to apply when euthanizing and organ harvesting non-terminally ill patients. The article was published in the wake of Canadian law now allowing patients who are not dying to ask for euthanasia — called “Track 2” patients in the article. (Track 1 patients, those whose deaths are “reasonably foreseeable,” have even more relaxed policies than Track 2.)
Due to space considerations, I will focus primarily on Track-2 patients — what a dehumanizing term to describe patients soon to be administered a lethal jab — which include the chronically ill, people with disabilities, the frail elderly, and starting next year, the mentally ill.
