The documents state that when her MAID application was turned down by a medical team in Alberta, she contacted B.C. Dr. Ellen Wiebe, a well-known assisted dying advocate.
A B.C. Supreme Court judge halted the MAiD procedure of Alberta woman that had been scheduled to be carried out in Vancouver clinic. Angela Jung reports.An Alberta woman who came to B.C. for medical assistance in dying had the procedure blocked by a B.C. Supreme Court judge just before it was set to take place.
Following some consultations, the woman travelled to Vancouver last week for MAID to be performed by Wiebe. However, on Saturday, one day before the scheduled procedure, the woman’s spouse was granted an injunction to stop it.The claim alleges that Weibe did not speak with the woman’s doctors directly but asked her to obtain her own medical records and send them to her.It also says the woman’s doctor and psychiatrist believed that MAID was very premature and that she had not reasonably exhausted all treatment options.“MAID is not legal in Canada for mental disorders yet,” Dr.
“We can almost always offer some relief and help people get past their suicidal thoughts. So I don’t think that MAID really needs to be considered in patients with mental illness. I think there’s always hope that they can get better.”Neither the patient nor Wiebe have logged a counterclaim.China ‘pre-positioning’ in U.S. networks for a potential conflict: Canadian agencyChina ‘pre-positioning’ in U.S.
