elderly patientEuthanasia proponents in Canada are targeting a hospice program in what is no doubt hoped to be the start of a domino effect.

Delta Hospice in British Columbia refuses to kill its patients, as it recognizes a hospice facility is meant to make its patients as comfortable as possible until their natural death. But Frazier Health, the authority that receives funding through the provincial government, has decided that all organizations it sends money to, including Delta, will euthanize patients.

"The board of the Delta Hospice has maintained a position saying that they oppose euthanasia," relays Alex Schadenberg of the Euthanasia Prevention Coalition. "On top of it, they maintain the position that euthanasia's not compatible with hospice care. Further … part of their articles of incorporation say that they do not hasten death."

But Frazier Health is warning Delta that maintaining that policy will end their funding, thus shutting down the hospice facility.

Schadenberg, Alex [EPC)"If the Delta Hospice is forced to do euthanasia, then the other hospice organizations that are also holding out … will be in a situation where they will also likely be forced to do euthanasia," Schadenberg warns.

In Delta's case, there is a hospital across the street that does euthanize patients, so the question is why Delta Hospice is being compelled to offer services that are already available nearby.

Euthanizing people is coming....as fast as the dems can get it here.

If the left comes into power they will open the borders and in a few years they will be euthanizing anyone 65 years of age(except for their leaders) the ...handicapped...the severely injured or critically ill...and only allowing certain people to have children...one child only. That is how they will pay for that healthcare for all.

I don't particularly support euthanasia, but even in places where it's legal, it has to be asked for:

Euthanasia in Canada in its legal voluntary form is called medical assistance in dying and became legal along with assisted suicide as of June 2016 to end the suffering of terminally ill adults. ... Consent must be repeatedly expressed, not implied, including in the moment right before death.

I've had personal experience at two different times with hospice and
both times the aim was to keep them comfortable while they took the
persons life. During one of the events the surviving wife was told, 
"I thought you knew what was going to happen." It's not a secret in this
day and time.

I was so glad when that ghoul Kevorkian died. He was one sick blank.
