Canadian Government TARGETS War Veterans With Death

Canada’s government-run veterans agency has been caught pushing euthanasia on over 20 military heroes who served their country, revealing a disturbing pattern of state-sponsored death counseling targeting America’s northern neighbor’s most vulnerable warriors.

Story Highlights

Canadian veteran Kelsi Sheren testified that over 20 veterans were offered euthanasia by government officials
Veterans Affairs Canada employees inappropriately suggested death to PTSD sufferers seeking help
Multiple cases include veterans offered euthanasia instead of medical equipment like stairlifts
Canada’s permissive euthanasia laws have expanded since 2016 to include mental health conditions

Government Agency Pushes Death Over Care

Canadian Armed Forces veteran Kelsi Sheren delivered explosive testimony to Parliament’s House of Commons veterans affairs committee in June 2025, revealing that Veterans Affairs Canada officials have systematically offered medical assistance in dying to over 20 service members.

Sheren, now a performance coach, presented evidence showing government employees tasked with supporting veterans instead steered them toward state-sanctioned suicide. This represents a fundamental betrayal of the sacred duty to care for those who served.

Veterans Seeking Help Offered Death Instead

The scandal involves multiple documented cases where veterans contacted Veterans Affairs Canada for legitimate medical and mental health support, only to be offered euthanasia.

Retired corporal Christine Gauthier testified in December 2022 that a VAC official suggested medical assistance in dying when she requested a stairlift for her home. Veteran David Baltzer reported being offered euthanasia while seeking help for PTSD.

These cases demonstrate how Canada’s euthanasia regime targets vulnerable individuals when they’re most desperate for genuine assistance.

Systematic Pattern of Government Overreach

Veterans Affairs Canada has acknowledged that offering euthanasia advice falls outside their mandate, stating employees “have no mandate or role to recommend MAID to veteran clients.”

However, the agency’s apologies and internal investigations cannot undo the psychological damage inflicted on veterans who trusted their government for support.

The pattern suggests institutional problems rather than isolated incidents, raising questions about whether this represents deliberate policy or dangerous negligence in training government workers.

Expansion of Death Culture Threatens Vulnerable Americans

Canada legalized euthanasia in 2016 and has aggressively expanded eligibility criteria, including plans to include mental disorders by 2023. University of Toronto law professor Trudo Lemmens warns about the normalization and expansion of euthanasia practices once legalized.

This serves as a stark warning for Americans as progressive activists push similar policies in blue states. The Canadian experience demonstrates how quickly “death with dignity” transforms into government pressure on vulnerable populations to choose death over expensive treatment.
