$5,235,696 to create a curriculum to kill people

When MAID was legalized in Canada, a curriculum was needed to teach doctors how to euthanize people.

Seven modules were developed: (1) foundations of MAiD in Canada, (2) clinical conversations that includes MAiD, (3) how to do an MAiD assessment, (4) capacity and vulnerability, (5) providing MAiD, (6) navigating complex cases with confidence, and (7) MAiD and mental disorders. An eighth topic on clinician resilience and reflection was woven into each of the 7 modules.

The curriculum was developed by the Canadian Association of MAID Assessors and Providers (CAMAP). With grants from the government. Or rather, from yours and my tax dollars. 

I requested and received two documents from a previously requested ATIP regarding CAMAP and this curriculum.

Some excerpts below from these documents. 

Here we have the invite from CAMAP sent to MAID practitioners for a workshop. Taxpayers actually paid for the airfare and hotel costs for this "workshop".

You're Invited to Our Annual Knowledge Exchange Workshop

Hello 

...Made possible with financial support from Health Canada, we are pleased to offer travel and accommodation support to ensure your participation is as seamless as possible. We will cover the costs of airfare (economy flight) and hotel arrangements for the duration of the workshop...(all emphasis added)

MAiD Research Forum 2026: Research to Inform Practice and Policy

"Conducting research to inform practice and policy is essential to high-quality MAiD care in Canada." (Can killing people be classified as "high-quality care"?)

Here we have an email to MAID practitioners looking for feedback on their MAID tool. And if you give feedback, we give you $500. Once again, taxpayers pay $500 to have doctors provide feedback on the MAID "guidance tool".

Request for Feedback on MAiD Guidance Tool and Overview Document

To:

Hello,

I hope this email finds you well. I am reaching out to request your valuable input on two documents developed by the Canadian Association of MAiD Assessors and Providers (CAMAP) to support front¬line staff in handling inquiries related to medical assistance in dying (MAiD) in Canada: the Guidance Tool and the Overview of the Guidance Tool. Your perspective as a national stakeholder is critical to ensuring these resources meet the diverse needs of organizations and individuals across the country. As a token of our appreciation for your time and expertise, we are pleased to offer a $500 honorarium to stakeholders who provide feedback by the deadline of March 24th. There is a section of the Form for you to include your organization's name and mailing address so we can process the honorarium.

Under Frequently Asked Questions we have the MAID people tie themselves up into knots trying to convince people that MAID is not euthanasia or suicide.

Question: Is MAiD the same as euthanasia or suicide?

Suggested Response: MAiD is a legal, medical procedure conducted under strict regulatory standards. MAiD requires explicit criteria and safeguards that must be met and is performed by experienced health practitioners within the framework of Canadian law. The term ‘euthanasia’ is a much more general term, which does not encompass the strict regulations and safeguards that exist for the provision of MAiD in Canada. ‘Suicide’ in this context is viewed as an sudden, impulsive and often violent act, whereas MAiD occurs in a controlled setting as a result of a series of conversations and discussions that illustrate a well-reasoned wish to die.

Below I itemize some comments where the words used are Woo Hoo'd, excited, thrilled, amazed, incredible, and how far we've come, and the all important exclamation mark--all of this chatter is when bureaucrats and or MAID proponents are talking about killing people by euthanasia:

Thanks to the support from Health Canada, we're making this a reality!

We are thrilled to invite you to our upcoming Canadian MAiD Curriculum (CMC) Stakeholder Meeting on Wednesday, April 23, 2.025, from 11 AM-12 PMPT / 2 PM-3 PM Eï via Zoom

As we celebrate nearly three incredible years since the launch of the Canadian MAiD Curriculum and step into our final year of project funding, we’re excited to reconnect with our amazing network of stakeholders. This meeting is a chance to reflect on how far we've come, share highlights from recent learner feedback, and spotlight what's ahead, including launching an exciting new initiative: the MAiD Coordinator’s Pilot.

Woo hoo! Thanks to everyone for helping to make this happen today!

Last we have the creation of a Canadian Journal of MAID. Published twice a year. 32 pages of MAID, MAID, and more MAID. Paid for by you.

So how much has all this cost the taxpayer to date?

Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Canada will make a contribution to the Recipient of up to five million two hundred thirty-five thousand six hundred ninety-six dollars ($5,235,696) towards Eligible Expenditures. Canada's contribution will be paid as follows:

In Fiscal Year 2021-2022 up to $519,110 

In Fiscal Year 2022-2023 up to $1,196,138 

In Fiscal Year 2023-2024 up to $1,039,434

In Fiscal Year 2026-2027 up to $62,500 

Two sides of the MAID issue - CCCB - DWDC: 140th and 141st time lobbying government

On the one hand, we have Fr. Francis at Mass today speaking out against MAID. (I will paraphrase): St. Thomas More who is the patron saint of statesmen, politicians, lawyers, and civil servants -- we must pray against MAID / euthanasia. We belong to one fold and have to be proactive and consider what's happening in the government concerning MAID. There is a growing number of deaths and mercy killings. We must be aware of and pray for protection from birth until natural death.

Fr. Francis also included the Statement from the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB) in his Sunday bulletin on MAID (I hope all parishes did the same): STATEMENT BY THE STANDING COMMITTEE FOR FAMILY AND LIFE TO THE CATHOLIC FAITHFUL IN CANADA AND ALL PEOPLE OF GOOD WILL VOICING CONCERN AND CALLING FOR PRAYERS ON THE 10TH ANNIVERSARY OF EUTHANASIA AND ASSISTED SUICIDE (“MAID”)

As disciples of Christ, we affirm that every human life is a gift, holds profound dignity and value, and is part of a human community (cf. Mt 25:31-46). In contrast, euthanasia and assisted suicide, whatever their motives or means, consist in intentionally causing or hastening the death of a person who is sick, suffering, disabled, or dying in order to eliminate suffering. Such acts can never be morally acceptable, for they are gravely contrary to the dignity of the human person and to the respect due to God, the Creator and Lord of life.4F 5 True compassion does not answer suffering with death, but accompanies those who suffer with hope, presence, palliative care, and relief of pain. Together with healthcare professionals, patients, and families, our faith teaches that we must strive for proportionate treatment options that neither unduly prolong nor intentionally hasten death, but instead offer life-affirming and compassionate care.

On the other hand, we have Dying with Dignity Canada's death cult lobbying government, yet again, to increase access to MAID. This is their 140th and 141st time lobbying government.

Thank God for clergy who speak out against the evil of MAID.

Instead of paying off the debt Canada invests in Pride Season

Recall how the Carney Liberals are continuing their discrimination policy against pro-life students who are not eligible to receive the Canada Summer Jobs Program. These grants are around $5,000 each. A drop in the bucket of government largesse, yet still will not ever go to a pro-life student.

Fast forward to Pride Season. Yes Virginia, Canada has a Pride Season--the only country in the world to not just celebrate Pride, but to have a whole season dedicated to it. And it's not just Pride Season, it's turning on the taps of millions and millions of dollars in new spending towards all things Pride, never mind old spending. 

Never mind that Canada's debt is now almost 3 trillion dollars (Looks like this ($3,000,000,000,000) and a current deficit of $66.9 billion.

Statement by Minister Rechie Valdez to Mark Canada’s Pride Season 2026

Pride Season is a celebration of the strength, diversity, and resilience of Canada’s 2SLGBTQI+ communities. Pride events begin this week and continue through September, offering 2SLGBTQI+ people and their allies opportunities to connect in safer spaces and celebrate the strengths of our communities.

Federal government strengthens support to keep 2SLGBTQI+ communities safe this Pride Season

Through ongoing investments in the 2SLGBTQI+ sector, including $54.6 million over five years, with $10.9 million ongoing, the federal government is supporting organizations to strengthen communities and expand participation in Canada’s economy and society. This includes $7.5 million over five years, with $1.5 million ongoing, to help Pride festivals address rising security and insurance costs and continue providing safe and welcoming spaces for participants, volunteers, families, and visitors.

Then there's the grants database, which is clearly not up-to-date. The first entry is for grants identified in 2024. Nothing shows for 2025.

From CRA for Fiscal period: July 01, 2024 to June 30, 2025: Government funding $3,473,973. 

CRA is my go to for the most accurate financial information for charities. 

Maybe one day we will see a pro-life charity get $3,473,973 in government funding. That. Would be. A miracle.

Dying With Dignity Canada lobbies government 139 times and counting / 2025 financial statements

A couple of notes on Dying with Dignity's recently published 2025 financial statements.

DWDC has long-term investments of $8,160,832 (2025), up from $7,370,174 (2024). Imagine a charity so rich that they can afford to keep more than $8 million in long-term investments--money that clearly isn't needed to run the business. They also received $646,153 in investment income alone. Can you imagine a pro-life charity being this rich? Neither can I.

My guess is that they will use this great big juicy horde of cash to pay for their Charter challenges (British Columbia court battle and the Mental Illness Exclusion Challenge in Ontario), and when they act as intervenors in other court cases. Lots of cash to do this. 

Donations are up: $ 2,976,918 (2025), from $ 2,759,606 (2024).

(I still puzzle why anyone would donate to this pro-death group who advocate, lobby and promote killing people. Why does Dying with Dignity even exist? Is it because of power? Or money? Or are they just plain old run of the mill lunatic psychopaths?)

Advertising and promotions $1,013,241 (2025), up from $803,555 (2024). That's over one third of their donations spent on advertising and promoting and lobbying the government for the killing industry.

The Euthanasia Prevention Coalition has applied to be intervenor in the Brosseau case launched by Dying with Dignity. 

The Brosseau case is asking an Ontario court to legislate from the bench by approving medical homicide for Claire Brosseau who is living with mental illness alone. Court interventions are very expensive. We need your support.

If you can, please give a donation to help EPC.
