Daily MailA Canadian doctor has suggested that babies with severe deformities could be euthanized under the country's controversial assisted suicide laws.
Quebec College of Physicians member Louis Roy has been condemned by a lobbying group after a comment he made during a 2022 parliamentary committee resurfaced.
Roy previously said that under current Canadian law, assisted suicide could be considered for infants up to one year old with severe ailments.
Brandan Tran, Director of Public Affairs and Outreach for political lobby group Campaign Life Coalition, has condemned this comment.
'These are not concerns from the fringes, but statements from a member of a provincial medical college, recommendations before parliament, and the reality of MAiD right now in Canada,' he said.
'A member of the Quebec College of Physicians formally stated that MAiD "may be an appropriate treatment for babies" from birth to one year of age with severe deformities.' ...
Eighty-five years ago, it was known as Aktion T-4.
