Canadian government accused of ‘euthanizing’ a senior against her will

Brigitte Stegemann was put to death by government workers from the Canadian Medical Assistance in Dying program on July 10. Stegemann had previously refused to be killed by the government, seeing it as a form of suicide, which is against her Christian faith. However, while her granddaughter and “primary contact for all medical and personal care decisions” was on holiday, maid workers met with Stegemann on July 7, assessed that she could make her own decision, and recorded that she wanted to die. Three days later, they came back and killed her, allegedly without the required final verbal consent of Stegemann. Whatever the circumstances, euthanasia is “Medical Murder.”
