  • Canadian Medical Assistance in Dying: Provider Concentration, Policy Capture, and Need for Reform.Christopher Lyon, Trudo Lemmens & Scott Y. H. Kim - forthcoming - American Journal of Bioethics:1-20.
    Canada’s rapid rise in deaths from euthanasia and physician assisted suicide, termed Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) in the country, now ranks it second only to the Netherlands in terms of MAiD deaths as percentage of overall deaths, with one province already hosting the highest rate of all jurisdictions in the world. Analyzing Health Canada’s annual MAID reports, which show that up to 336 out of 1837 providers are likely responsible for the majority of MAID deaths in a given year, (...)

  • Canada’s Medical Assistance in Dying System can Enable Healthcare Serial Killing.Christopher Lyon - 2025 - HEC Forum 37 (1):65-105.
    The Canadian approach to assisted dying, Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD), as of early 2024, is assessed for its ability to protect patients from criminal healthcare serial killing (HSK) to evaluate the strength of its safeguards. MAiD occurs through euthanasia or self-administered assisted suicide (EAS) and is legal or considered in many countries and jurisdictions. Clinicians involved in HSK typically target patients with the same clinical features as MAiD-eligible patients. They may draw on similar rationales, e.g., to end perceived patient (...)

  • The Moral Dissociation Curve, Blind Spots and Prescribing Death in Canada.Richard Sams Ii - 2024 - Canadian Journal of Bioethics / Revue canadienne de bioéthique 7 (4):125-130.
    La mort assistée par un prestataire est en passe de devenir l’une des principales causes de décès au Canada depuis l’adoption de la loi sur l’aide médicale à mourir (AMM) en 2016. Ce qui devait être exceptionnel est devenu courant; certains demandent qu’on s’y attende. De plus en plus de patients atteints de maladies chroniques non terminales sont euthanasiés. Le personnel de santé approuve et propose désormais des MAiD aux patients vulnérables qui sont dépressifs, handicapés, atteints d’une maladie chronique ou (...)

  • The Moral Dissociation Curve, Blind Spots and Prescribing Death in Canada.I. I. Richard W. Sams - unknown
    Provider assisted death is becoming a leading cause of death in Canada since the passage of Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) legislation in 2016. What was to be exceptional has now become common; some are calling for it to be expected. Increasing numbers of patients with chronic, non-terminal conditions are being euthanized. Healthcare personnel are now approving and offering MAiD to vulnerable patients who are depressed, disabled, chronically ill or impoverished. This paper presents a rationale from a transcendent moral law (...)

  • Questioning the Ethics of Assisted Dying for the Mentally Ill.Patrick Craine - 2023 - Canadian Journal of Bioethics / Revue canadienne de bioéthique 6 (3-4):115-127.
    Depuis que le Canada a légalisé l’aide médicale à mourir (AMM) en 2016, il est devenu l’un des régimes les plus permissifs au monde en matière d’euthanasie et de suicide assisté. Le nombre de décès a augmenté rapidement et les catégories d’admissibilité continuent de s’élargir. Le pays est sur le point, à partir de mars 2024, d’autoriser l’AMM pour les personnes dont la seule condition sous-jacente est la maladie mentale, ce qui a suscité un débat considérable. Les défenseurs de l’AMM (...)
