Liberal Health Minister Mark Holland made an announcement on Monday regarding the expansion of the medical assistance in dying (MAID) program in Canada. The proposed inclusion of individuals with mental illness as the sole underlying condition, initially set to take effect on March 17, has been postponed. While Minister Holland did not provide a precise timeline for the expansion, he assured that it would proceed at a later date.
This decision aligns with concerns raised by healthcare officials and mental health professionals across various provinces who have questioned the speed of the MAID program’s expansion. A parliamentary response to a recently tabled report evaluating the readiness of Canada’s healthcare system for the proposed MAID expansion will be presented in the coming days.
Minister Holland affirmed the government’s commitment to eventually moving forward with MAID for mental illness but emphasized the importance of allowing more time to ensure the system is adequately prepared. He acknowledged the challenging situations of individuals enduring prolonged mental suffering and stressed the necessity of getting the implementation right.
Responding to inquiries about those anticipating the March 17 expansion, Minister Holland recognized that, without a specified timeline, these individuals would experience a longer wait to access MAID. Despite the delay, he suggested that they would understand the need for patience, considering it a sacrifice to ensure the comprehensive readiness of the system.

First MAID was for the incurable , then the old, now for the mentally ill. Who is next? For the unvaxxed? For the homeless? Those who are straight, white and normal? For christians? For the unmicrochipped? Is there no limit to your evil ways Canada?
Canada is no different than any other country with a Zionist Occupied Government. It doesn’t matter what the electorate wants, it is what the political donors and manipulators want. Occasionally our crooked court system actually makes the correct decision. Be advised that several Provincial Premiers are opposed to the changes and have stated the Feds need to pause and re-think. As someone who had a family member choose MAID, I can tell you there were many steps in the process, including the consent requiring the person being assessed as being of sound mind and it being witnessed by two people unknown to the applicant. It was neither a simple nor quick process, due to the medical assessments required to meet the criteria. This latest abomination is part of the psychopathic globalist’s population reduction and genocide plan.
