Two Canadian doctors have made headlines for allegedly killing hundreds of patients.\u00a0Ellen Wiebe and\u00a0Stefanie Green, both members of Dying with Dignity Canada, have<\/a>\u00a0reportedly euthanized more than 700 patients between them. The shocking statistics come as data<\/a> shows that since the legalization of Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) in 2016, more than 31,000 Canadians have died by euthanasia and assisted suicide.<\/p>\n

Speaking to the New Atlantis<\/a>, Green, a former obstetrician, admitted, “I find that the act of offering the option of an assisted death is one of the most therapeutic things we do.” Green likened her work of killing people to that of her previous occupation bringing life into the world.\u00a0\u201cAt both \u2018deliveries,\u2019 as I call them, I am invited into a most intimate moment in people\u2019s lives,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Similarly, speaking during a 2020 seminar about her work killing patients, Wiebe said, “It’s the most rewarding work we’ve ever done.”<\/p>\n
