With a one-minute look at culture from a Christian worldview, I'm John Stone Street with the point.

Anytime that Dr. Assisted Death is legalized, what begins as a so-called right to die soon devolves into a duty to die.

For example, defenders of Canada's expansive policy of medical aid in dying frequently claim that the supposed safeguards will prevent a simple cost-benefit analysis when it comes to deciding

who should live and who should die. However, the truth slips out more than a few times now. Back in

2017, the publicly funded Canadian Broadcasting Corporation cited a report that medical aid in

dying could, quote, result in substantial savings across Canada's health care system, to the tune of 136.8

million a year. Those savings happen when high-cost patients are put to death. Aaron Trettenberg,

author of the report, said it frankly, quote, in a resource limited health care system,

anytime we roll out a large intervention, cost has to be part of that discussion. It's just the

reality of working in a system

of finite resources. And that's why decisions about life and death should never be put into systems

of finite resources. Putting a price tag on what's priceless only cheapens it. And human

lives are priceless. I'm John Stone Street.
