Canadian Doctors Propose Euthanasia for Babies
Faith Facts
- Doctors in Canada have put forward a proposal to allow euthanasia for newborns with disabilities.
- This position is supported by the Quebec College of Physicians (CMQ), who argue that ending a child’s life in certain cases could be seen as “care.”
- Critics warn this step devalues life and reflects a dangerous shift away from Biblical respect for all human beings, regardless of health or ability.
The CMQ’s recommendation has raised alarm from those defending the sanctity of life, warning that such policies threaten to undermine the Christian understanding of every person’s God-given worth.
Wesley J. Smith observed,
“Canada has jumped so enthusiastically into the euthanasia abyss that I have little doubt that infanticide will eventually be allowed there. It’s only logical. If killing is an acceptable answer to suffering, why limit the killing to adults?”
Canada’s program has steadily expanded since its introduction in 2016, recently removing the requirement that death must be foreseeable and proposing even broader allowances for mental illness, children, and prisoners.
Similar practices have been adopted in the Netherlands, where euthanasia is permitted for babies under one year with parental consent, drawing historical parallels that alarm many believers.
Trudo Lemmens, who once supported Canada’s law, stated,
“One of the most worrying aspects of the Canadian experiment is it shows that once you start legalising, there is a risk that a significant number of physicians normalise this practice. It’s like putting fuel on the fire. I’m not sure it can be easily contained.”
In 2023, euthanasia and assisted suicide accounted for 15,343 deaths in Canada, representing nearly 5% of all deaths. Concerned voices like Catherine Robinson urge a return to Biblical compassion and protection for the vulnerable, declaring,
“Advocating for euthanasia for disabled children is appalling and a clear form of eugenic discrimination. Babies with severe disabilities deserve care, and their families need support. Canada should not be considering euthanising its most vulnerable citizens.”
We must stand courageously for life, affirming that every child is valued and created in the image of God, no matter their circumstances. Join the movement to defend the rights of the most vulnerable and uphold Christian values in public life.

- Over 6,000 have signed a petition supporting Rev Dr Bernard Randall.
- He was dismissed by Trent College for upholding Biblical teaching.
- Authorities found no wrongdoing after multiple investigations.
Concerned Christians have rallied behind Rev Dr Bernard Randall, who was dismissed from ministry after affirming that students are not required to accept LGBT ideology. Despite facing scrutiny from several official bodies, all concluded there was no cause for punitive action against him.
Rev Randall has remained barred from preaching in the Church of England, even though his message supported traditional Christian teachings. His perseverance highlights the challenges faced by those committed to Biblical truth in modern society.
“I have been punished not for wrongdoing, but for believing.”
The CitizenGo petition urges the Church of England to restore Rev Randall and apologize, citing concerns about the future for ministers holding Biblical convictions. The petition warns that continued exclusion harms not only individuals but also the integrity of the Church’s witness.
Let us pray for fellowship and courage for all believers who stand firm in their faith. Your voice matters in defending religious freedom and upholding Biblical truth.
