Canadian Doctor Who Euthanized Man After Coffee Shop Meeting Placed Under Supervision
After one of his patients had his euthanasia assessment conducted
outside a doughnut shop, an Ontario doctor has been placed under
supervision by the province’s physicians’ regulator due to repeated
failures to adhere to protocols and procedures.
Dr James MacLean was the subject of two complaints relating to two cases involving Canada’s euthanasia and assisted suicide regime, known as Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD).
After the cases, one of which included conducting an assessment
outside the cafe and doughnut shop Tim Hortons, his general conduct was
reviewed by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario, and it
was determined that MacLean displayed a lack of judgment in his
decisions, dealt with patients in a way that “raised a risk of perceived
coercion”, and kept inadequate records. ---More...
Catholic Bishop: Vote Against Virginia Abortions Up to Birth Amendment
During a recent episode of his “Walk Humbly” podcast, the Bishop of
Arlington, Virginia, Michael Francis Burbidge, spoke out against two
proposed constitutional amendments likely appearing before Virginia
voters this November, describing them as measures “from the evil one.”
Among the constitutional amendments likely slated for Virginia’s
November 2026 general election are a proposal concerning reproductive
issues like abortion, contraception, and in vitro fertilization, and
another concerning same-sex marriage. Burbidge framed both measures as
conflicting with Catholic teaching on the sanctity of life and marriage
and has long signaled opposition to both proposals.
Last January, he criticized the “extreme abortion amendment,”
pledging to “be deeply engaged in the work of helping to educate voters
on these proposed amendments” and to “fight the extreme abortion
amendment with maximum determination.” ---More...
Pro-Life Republican Mayes Middleton Wins Primary for Texas Attorney General
Pro-Life Republican Mayes Middleton won Tuesday’s election to become
the party’s nominee for Texas attorney general. This is one of the most
important roles in the Texas government when it comes to upholding
Pro-Life laws and stopping illegal abortions. Middleton will face
Democrat Nathan Johnson in November.
The Texas attorney general is one of the most consequential positions
for the Pro-Life movement, not just in Texas but across the country.
Texas has led the nation by passing and defending strong Pro-Life laws,
but the state still needs someone to make sure the law is being
followed. Without a bold attorney general, even the best-written
protections could be worthless.
Middleton’s record from the Texas House and Senate proves his
readiness for this task. He earned a 100% Pro-Life score every year in
office and helped pass bills to protect preborn children, crack down on
illegal abortion pills, block taxpayer-funded abortions, and save
hospital patients from having their treatment taken away. Middleton’s
experience shows he is able to carry our Pro-Life legal efforts forward
and stop abortionists from killing Texas babies, even if the activists
are in other states. ---More...
