Canada’s assisted suicide laws have continued rapidly expanding in recent years, with a group of doctors now pushing for disabled newborn babies to be euthanized.
The demand for euthanasia is so high that doctors who provide it cannot keep up, according to a new report by The Atlantic.
Assisted dying, legalized in 2016, now accounts for about one out of 20 deaths in Canada, far surpassing countries where it’s been legal for longer.
*** and ***
Canada’s road to allowing euthanasia began in 2015, when its top court declared that outlawing assisted suicide deprived people of their dignity and autonomy. It gave national leaders a year to draft legislation.
The resulting 2016 law legalized both euthanasia and assisted suicide for people aged 18 and over, provided they met certain conditions.
They had to have a serious, advanced condition, disease, or disability that was causing suffering and their death was looming.
The law was later amended to allow people who are not terminally ill to choose death, significantly broadening the number of eligible people.
Critics say that change removed a key safeguard aimed at protecting people with potentially decades of life left.
Today, any adult with a serious illness, disease, or disability can seek help in dying.

The Return of Eugenics
By Robert Weissberg — August 25, 2025
*** begin quote ***
If one word is guaranteed to enrage the woke mob, it is eugenics, a term conjuring up images of Hitler, the Holocaust, white supremacy, and sterilizing the feeble-minded. Yet, despite the odium surrounding “eugenics,” it is, paradoxically, making a comeback thanks to medical advances, not the rise of right-wing ideology. Vast sums are currently being invested in firms to promote eugenics, but the term “eugenics” is never uttered.
Recent newspaper stories recount how parents employ cutting-edge scientific advances in genetics to have the best possible children while avoiding deadly genetic defects like cystic fibrosis. A New York Post story – “Silicon Valley Parents Spend Thousands to Screen Embryos in Search of ‘Baby Geniuses’” — recounted parents spending upwards of $50,000 to screen embryos to discover one with the best genes for intelligence prior to fertilizing it, and then via In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) implanting it in the woman’s womb. The Post story mentions two intelligence screening start-ups — Nucleus Genomics and Heraslight — both funded by major Silicon Valley entrepreneurs.
A particularly successful illustration of this new eugenics is Orchid Health headed by Noor Siddiqui with thousands of clients thanks to its 100 U.S. clinics, a figure that doubled from the previous year. Given the complexity of human genetics, Orchid Heath’s claims to use as few as five cells from the mother’s embryo to develop a “polygenetic risk score” to predict a child’s future chances for some 1200 single-gene disorders plus more complex polygenetic illnesses such as bipolar disorder, cancer, and Alzheimer’s disease. According to its mother, one of Elon Musk’s children was from an embryo screened by Orchid Heath and, at Musk’s request, the embryo was screened for intelligence (the firm does not usually screen for intelligence but will do it on request).

As gun-owning pro-life pro-choice little L libertarian, I find this deplorable. And, interesting that two stories come to light on the issue from different authors and perspectives.
Are we so full of hubris that we can be like the ancient Aztecs, who sacrificed children to appease their “gods”. What “god” are we appeasing?
Often I see uplifting stories about “disabled children” who grow up and have “good” lives.
And, how do these babies give their “informed consent”? Or those with confirmed “mental illnesses”?
Sorry but this is murder or maybe even genocide when you take into account abortions!
My favorite analogy or metaphor is what if we are killing the “golden child”?

My greatest fear is that we will kill “the Golden Child”. In Will Crowther’s Colossal Cave Adventure game, if you killed the bird in Cave #7, you never could proceed past the snake in Cave #11. (Although it was funny to see smart engineers trying “stuff” when it was impossible to proceed.) What if the potential person that’s killed is the next Salk who will cure cancer, the next Hawkings who will explain the Universe, or the next Mother Teresa who will comfort untold number of sufferers?
*** end quote ***
If we “believe” that all humans have “rights”, and we can argue about when those rights INURE to any person (i.e., conception; birth; when they can assert them; when they can fight for them), when does our civil society recognize those rights?
Sigh!
Otherwise we are nothing more than talented savages existing in a “might makes right” world.
The Nuremberg Code is a set of ethical principles for human experimentation established after World War II, emphasizing the necessity of voluntary consent and the moral obligation to protect human subjects in research.
And today’s medical professionals are transgressors and should be hung too.
