Canadians have to wait an average of 27.7 weeks to receive basic medical care – but the Trudeau government’s euthanasia program is the fastest growing in the world, with many ill people opting for lethal injection rather than waiting for treatment.

​

According to an August report from Canadian think tank Cardus, the number of Canadians committing suicide through the “Medical Assistance in Dying” (MAiD) euthanasia program has skyrocketed thirteen-fold since it was legalized, making MAiD the fastest growing euthanasia program in the world. 

“Health Canada has dramatically underestimated what a ‘steady state’ of MAiD deaths would look like and how quickly Canada would reach the 4 percent threshold of total deaths,” the report found.

“This threshold was reached in 2022, eleven years ahead of what Health Canada predicted only months earlier and double its prediction just four years earlier,” it continued.
