Canada’s experiment with legalized suicide took another dark turn after one victim chose to donate their heart after their death. The heart donor was a 38-year-old man suffering from Lou Gehrig’s disease. The recipient was a 59-year-old American. The first organ transplant of a MAID “patient” promises to open the door to what will be organ harvesting of the weak and vulnerable.
The University of Pittsburgh joined the Ottawa Hospital in the procedure, offering this comment afterwards, “Provision of MAiD and death determination occurred in keeping with Canadian standards. Death was declared within seven minutes of initiating the MAiD protocol.”
