Canada has achieved a grim medical milestone: the world's first successful heart transplant from a patient euthanized via MAiD. A 38-year-old man with ALS was lethally injected. Just seven minutes after his heart stopped, it was "reanimated," transported to the US, and transplanted. This marks a terrifying new frontier in "Organ Donation after Euthanasia" (ODE), where Canada is now a "world leader." The numbers are exploding: • 136 of 286 global ODE cases by 2021 were Canadian. • 5% of all organ transplants in Canada in 2024 used organs from the euthanized. Medical reports themselves warn of the coercion: Patients who feel they are a "burden" may now feel pressured to "do something meaningful" with their death. The desire to donate can become a driver for the request to die. We are normalizing a pathway where the most vulnerable are harvested to save others. This isn't just about one life-saving transplant; it's about the ethical cost to a society that creates a system where death becomes a utility.
