Hope - Preventing Euthnasia & assisted Suicide

 

As more heartbreaking euthanasia stories trickle out from Canada, the cracks in the euthanasia industry’s propaganda are starting to show. The country already lays claim to having one of the highest assisted suicide rates in the world, with 13,102 people having chosen to die under the MAiD regime in 2022. That is a lot of people choosing death day after day. The media has already reported numerous cases of people accessing euthanasia due to poverty, disabilities, and a lack of access to basic medical care or facilities to help them live.  The latest incredibly sad story comes from Quebec. Norman Meunier, a 66 year old former truck driver is the latest person to choose death by euthanasia. He did so after developing bed sores in hospital. The hospital left him on a stretcher for almost four days, and failed to provide him with a mattress. He couldn’t cope with the psychological and physical pain that resulted. As disability advocate Steven Laerriere commented, getting a proper mattress is not like ‘trying to get a space shuttle into orbit’. In other words, it is a matter of basic care that could have made a difference between life and death for this man.  Yet now it seems that Canada offers death to its patients as an alternative to negligent medical care. Before his death, he spoke to the media and said he didn’t want to be a burden.  None of these scenarios were promoted by euthanasia activists when they first pushed euthanasia laws through the parliament.  They falsely claimed these laws were only needed for people with unbearable suffering at the very end of their lives.  That was clearly never going to be the case. This story, and countless others emerging from Canada, should serve as a warning to those countries considering legalising euthanasia and assisted suicide.  There is no question that doing so leads to a culture of death that is very difficult to wind back. There is never a justification for euthanasia and assisted suicide.  We can do better.  Warm regards, Branka van der Linden Director, Hope QUADRIPLEGIC MAN CHOOSES EUTHANASIA AFTER GETTING BEDSORES IN HOSPITAL Canadian man Normand Meunier, who died by euthanasia on 29 March this year, has made international headlines for all the wrong reasons. Normand applied to die by euthanasia after he was admitted to hospital with a respiratory virus, was not provided with a special air mattress, and developed painful bed sores as a result. CONTINUE READING IT’S NOT GOOD ENOUGH General practitioner and pro-euthanasia advocate, Nicholas Carr, is the first person reportedly reprimanded and fined for a breach of Victoria’s euthanasia and assisted suicide laws. CONTINUE READING A NEW TYPE OF SLIPPERY SLOPE Euthanasia has been legal in The Netherlands for more than 20 years. The most recent statistics report 8720 deaths annually, which is one death every hour of every day. Since its introduction, it has been expanded to the mentally ill, to children of all ages and there is a push to expand the law further to include those aged over 75 who are simply tired of life. CONTINUE READING PEOPLE ARE MORE THAN A BUDGET ITEM The president of Belgium’s largest health insurance fund, Luc Van Gorp, has boldly linked making euthanasia more accessible to saving of health and aged care costs in a recent interview with a local newspaper.

Did you know you can live stream Shoalhaven City Council Meetings and watch Archive ones

How do we catch up with what is going on in Council's day-to-day business? It is a good question to answer. Is everyone interested in what happens within our very own local government area? Is everyone talking about what Council can do for the future or may have done in the past.

The question should also be, do we watch an episode of a Council Meeting to forego watching movies or other free-to-air Tv series or entertainment?

The reason why I can ask this as the live stream could last for hours and so can the archive version. 

Yes, we can attend Council Meetings as well and follow that process as well. Yet watching its entire live stream length, prepare you grab a cup of coffee /tea whilst you watch it. You will feel more comfortable.

Some of us may think it's boring, yet there could be parts that are interesting to listen to for many other viewers topics could range from Council Rates, new  proposals for development for communities and private dwellings,  traffic & road infrastructure, debates on motions 

The other possibility is to attend Council Meetings directly, so why not watch them oin your own home, use surround sound, sit down and relax  Click here to view details
