The narrative that MAiD provides a peaceful, beautiful death every time is false.
One patient cried "help me" and showed signs of distress during MAiD. Bradley Stewart resumed breathing after being declared dead, leaving his family traumatized. In one study, one-third of family members described the MAiD death as traumatic.
Informed consent requires disclosure of complications and adverse outcomes, not just promises of a beautiful death.

Did you know that Ontario Premier @fordnation'sĀ chiefĀ coroner has noted at least 428 possible criminal violations of MAID laws since 2016. YetĀ not a single oneĀ has been referred to law enforcement.
Why do euthanasia doctors who go outside the bounds of our expansive MAiD laws get such leniency?

The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario wants you to know MAiD is āa highly regulated area of medical practice with well-defined expectationsā. That's why when a doctor met a patient at a donut shop then personally chauffeured him to be euthanized, they placed him "under three months of moderate supervision".

In Canada, you can botch killing your patient, return later to finish the job, and get less of a reprimand than selling raw milk, speeding, or killing a bat.
The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario needs to take this more seriously.

In Canada we're so careful with MAiD that when Dr. "Death Donuts" MacLean had to return to kill his patient who "resumed spontaneous breathingā because he forgot to bring all the drugs when he euthanized him the 1st time, the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario "cautioned" him!
Canadaās āDr. Death and Donutsā practices at the same clinic as my family physician. My own child has been treated by him.
Here's an article I wrote in @FDRLST about the new Canadian "double double": euthanasia on every street corner, as common as Tim Horton's donuts.

Imagine you need healthcare in London, Ontario. You go to the clinic, check in, wait for the doctor. When the door finally opens Dr. Death and Donuts steps in the room, closes the door, and you're alone with him.
How do you feel, what do you do?

Still thinking about this šš»
A grocery store or restaurant with spoiled food faces more professional consequences than this. There'd be recalls. There'd be statements from the business with the spoiled goods.
Doctor who drives patients to their death after donuts and coffee? Meh.
The regulatory response is absolutely SHOCKING.
I just emailed my doctor's office (where Dr. MacLean is on staff) to ask the following:
šWhat steps has clinic put in place to protect patients from the practices that Dr. MacLean is currently under supervision for?
šš»Will be offered MAiD at our clinic if they don't raise the procedure themselves?
MacLean is under 6-month supervision for what are, at best outrageous lapses in judgment and care. What does supervision mean? Will he and supervisor drive patients to get MAiD after buying them donuts and coffee? Not clear.
Unserious disciplinary action.
SHOCKING:
"In another case, Dr. James MacLean failed to administer one of three drugs used in assisted deaths ā one that paralyzes the bodyās muscles, including the muscles involved in breathing. The patient resumed spontaneously breathing again after initially being pronounced dead, and after MacLean had already left the home."
