Does a court have the right to order a doctor to commit a murder? This ethical dilemma has to be considered in the light of a BC court’s decision to allow Gloria Taylor to procure physician-assisted suicide.   According to the Criminal Code of Canada, Section 229: Culpable homicide is murder

• (a) where the person who causes the death of a human being

• (i) means to cause his death, or
• (ii) means to cause him bodily harm that he knows is likely to cause his death, and is reckless whether death ensues or not

How can this judge legally order a murder? Can a doctor decline to carry out a judicial order?   I can hear it now… “Oh, nobody will be forced to assist someone with suicide.” These assurances are about as reassuring as, “Nobody will be forced to perform a same sex marriage,” or “Nobody will be forced to participate in abortion.” Canadians aren’t as naïve as we once were. As my father would have put it, “It’s a bunch of Hog Wash!” We elect a government to govern this county and, instead of responsibly carrying out that mandate, they choose to hide behind judges and so called Human Rights Commissions to protect their electability.   Cowardice in the face of the abortion and same sex marriage debate had parliament pawn their responsibility over to unelected judges. Now when individual Christians and Christian organizations speak out to warn Canadians of the pending devastating effects, parliament “sicks” their HRC dogs on them to not only silence them but follow up by crippling them with costly fines and legal expenses.   Now the same process that allowed judges to make abortion and same sex marriage lawful and coerce acceptance in Canada is being repeated to introduce the scourge of euthanasia.   The stunning decision Friday gives Gloria Taylor, a 64-year-old woman with late-stage ALS, a constitutional exemption to proceed with physician-assisted suicide as BC Supreme Court strikes down the ban on doctor-assisted suicide.   If you’ll recall, parliament spoke out overwhelmingly against same sex marriage, yet only one year later (and after the judges did the dirty work), parliament turned 180 degrees and welcomed it with open arms. So the fact that parliament has repeatedly voted overwhelmingly against the Bloc “To Die with Dignity” euthanasia bill is meaningless; history has revealed their hypocrisy.   Only weeks ago you learned from the open admission by Revelstoke’s Conservative MP, David Wilks, of how the whipping process works, which was the subject of my earlier Communiqué. You can call, visit, and write your opposition of these issues to your member of parliament but if he or she isn’t a cabinet minister it means diddly-squat and it’s a virtual waste of your valuable time. Not even behind the scenes are backbenchers able to debate the issue and voice your opposition. Cabinet and the PM call the shots.   I suspected this corruption ten years ago and decided then not to get involved with the major parties in parliament because it’s simply giving support to the problem. Instead I put all my efforts and support behind the only remaining political solution this country has left, the Christian Heritage Party of Canada. I can only ask that you share this Communiqué with your family, friends, and colleagues in order to enlighten and encourage them to get on board with building Canada’s political solution. We are building! It’s exciting! And, we will succeed!   Watch this six minute CHP video on the devastating results experienced after Holland introduced what was supposed to be a limited euthanasia bill.   We must count on you to support Canada’s only remaining political solution.
