Hélène de Lauzun in The European Conservative laments France’s imminent introduction of a euthanasia law that will make chronically ill people with several years left to live (as well as the mentally ill) “eligible” for assisted suicide. Just one doctor’s agreement will be needed to put someone to death, and doctors will risk professional ruin if they refuse to go along. Of course, what’s new and still shocking in France is standard practice in Canada.
Radical Transgenderism Takes Another Hit
The 11,000-member American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) – which includes hundreds of Canadian members – “has come out unequivocally against ‘gender-affirming’ surgeries in adolescents under age 19,” writes Leor Sapir in City Journal. The ASPS has also joined a growing number of international organizations in warning about the potential physical and psychological damage to children and teens of puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones.
[Editor’s note: Two days after the ASPS’s announcement, the American Medical Association announces it now agrees that gender-altering “surgical interventions in minors should be generally deferred to adulthood.”]
