State-Sanctioned Suicide Is The 4th Leading Cause Of Death In Canada

Canada’s government-run euthanasia program increased its death toll again last year, taking more than 16,000 lives, and placing medically assisted suicide as the fourth leading cause of death in the country.

According to an annual report published by the Canadian government, 16,499 people were killed through the Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) program in 2024, increasing 6.9 percent from the previous year. Close to 75 percent of the 22,535 people who applied for the program were approved.

The report authors stated that the number of deaths is possibly stabilizing, while admitting that “long-term trends” have not yet been identified. Based on 2023 numbers, an estimated 1 in 20 deaths are government-directed.

Expanding the Death Program

The horrors of government-funded murder should not be understated. Canada’s program has grown every year since it began, as restrictions continue to loosen, despite reports of corrupt and coercive practices. Developed countries view Canada as a “cautionary tale” where government killing has become an expansive and accepted norm.

First legalized in 2016, the country’s assisted-suicide law has had multiple revisions, expanding beyond patients with terminal diagnoses.

Candidates in MAID are organized within two categories, or “tracks.” Applicants are placed in Track 1 if they have a terminal diagnosis or “reasonably foreseeable death,” while Track 2 is reserved for those who have no terminal diagnosis but are living with a “grievous and irremediable medical condition.” The majority of those killed through Track 2 were women, with an average age of 75.9 years, while men held a slight majority in Track 1, averaging an age of 78.

The government offers “broad categories … to practitioners for MAID reporting purposes,” to include cancer, neurological conditions, and “other.” The “other” category encompasses some highly treatable diseases, such as diabetes and chronic mental disorders. Hearing and visual issues are included as possible selections.

Even more striking, more than four percent of MAID applicants who were killed had neither a terminal diagnosis nor “reasonably foreseeable death.” Many suffered from isolation and felt a burden to their caregivers. The government has capitalized on these vulnerabilities and is seeking to expand its reach.

Access for mental health patients with no other underlying disease is currently being considered for approval in 2027, and in the province of Quebec, an advance request to enroll in MAID is now legal under certain conditions. This request could be granted at the onset of a disease, even if a person is unable to choose life-ending drugs due to mental or physical incapacities later on, leaving more vulnerable persons entrapped in the deadly system.

Rhode Island Democrat AG SNAPS at Reporter When Asked Why Pro-Palestine Activist’s Brown University Profiles Were Scrubbed — Brown University Releases Statement

As the investigation into a shocking mass shooting at Brown University drags into its fourth day with no suspect in custody, Rhode Island’s Democrat Attorney General Peter Neronha snapped at a reporter after being confronted with mounting questions, including why Brown University scrubbed its website of a pro-Palestine activist’s profile.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, one of the victims of the attack was 19-year-old Brown University sophomore Ella Cooke, a devout Christian from Alabama and the Vice President of Brown’s Republican Club.

Fox News host Jesse Watters raised disturbing questions that many Americans are now asking:

“The family of Ella Cooke, the Alabama young woman who was a sophomore, has been told that she was the target of what happened at Brown. I have no idea whether that’s true. But if police are telling students they are safe and don’t need to shelter in place — while they don’t have a suspect in custody — that suggests this was a targeted attack.”

The second Brown University shooting victim has been identified as 18-year-old Uzbekistan immigrant Mukhammad Aziz Umurzokov.

Watters also noted reports that the shooter may have screamed “Allahu Akbar” before opening fire, though police have refused to confirm the details.

“A guy walks into an Ivy League building, fires off 40 rounds, murders two people, walks out — and three days later, they have no idea who he is. They won’t even say if it was a man or a woman. Police first claimed they had a white Army veteran detained… then admitted, ‘Oops, wrong guy.’”

As police stonewalled the public, internet sleuths noticed something else: Brown University wiped its website of profiles linked to a self-described “Free Palestine” and LGBTQ activist.

(NOTE: The Gateway Pundit is not alleging or asserting that the individual is the shooter at Brown University. No individual mentioned in this report has been charged in connection with the crime unless explicitly stated by law enforcement. As always, all individuals are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.)

When reporters asked Rhode Island AG Peter Neronha about the sudden removal of the profiles, he became visibly defensive.

Neronha insisted that if the activist’s name were relevant, law enforcement would be “out looking for that person,” and warned the public against “reading into things.”

He concluded by demanding that the public focus instead on helping police identify the shooter, despite the fact that authorities have released little actionable information.

Ed Department: Nearly 2,000 Minnesota ‘Ghost Students’ Fraudulently Received $12.5 Million

In Minnesota, home to the largest population of Somali immigrants in the U.S. and the site of numerous fraud investigations, fraudsters received $12.5 million in student loan and education grant money, according to a letter Education Secretary Linda McMahon sent to Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.

The letter calls on Walz to resign, and states that a new fraud prevention system at the department has found over $1 billion in “attempted financial aid theft,” including by international fraud rings and artificial intelligence (AI) bots.

“[Y]our careless lack of oversight and abuse of the welfare system has attracted fraudsters from around the world, especially from Somalia, to establish a beachhead of criminality in our country,” McMahon wrote. “As President Trump put it, you have turned Minnesota into a ‘fraudulent hub of money laundering activity.’”

“At the beginning of this year, the U.S. Department of Education became aware that fraudulent college applicants, especially concentrated in Minnesota, were gaming the federal postsecondary education system to collect money that was intended for young Americans to help them afford college,” she said.

McMahon referred to the fraudsters as “‘ghost students’ because they were not ID-verified and often did not live in the United States, or they simply did not exist,” and noted that, “[i]n Minnesota, 1,834 ghost students were found to have received 12.5 million in taxpayer-funded grants and loans.”

They “collected checks from the federal government, shared a small portion of the money with the college, and pocketed the rest–without attending the college at all,” according to the letter.

The letter comes after Somalis in Minnesota, in particular, have been exposed as having massively defrauded American taxpayers. They have even reportedly funded terrorists back in their country.

The news surrounding Somali fraud includes allegations of multiple scams, including claims that an autism “provider” enrolled Somali children who did not have an autism diagnosis in a welfare fraud scheme.

The outrage, among many other cultural problems with Somalis, has resulted in President Donald Trump intending to cancel some Somalis’ temporary protected status.

BBC Vows to Fight Trump’s $10 BILLION Defamation Lawsuit After Splicing J6 Speech to Depict Trump Calling for Violence

The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) has vowed to fight Trump’s $10 million lawsuit against the broadcaster for defamation and violations of the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act after they were caught deceptively editing Trump’s January 6 speech to make it appear he was calling for violence. 

As The Gateway Pundit reported, President Trump told reporters on Monday that he would imminently be filing a defamation lawsuit against the BBC after announcing his intention to do so last month.

“In a little while, you’ll be seeing, I’m suing the BBC for putting words in my mouth,” Trump said in the Oval Office.

“They actually have me speaking with words that I never said, and they got caught because I believe somebody at BBC said this is so bad it has to be reported. That’s called fake news.

FBI Agents Thought Clinton’s Uranium One Deal Might Be Criminal – But McCabe, Yates Stonewalled Investigation: Report

Remember Uranium One? The massive 2010 sale of US uranium deposits to Russia approved by Hillary Clinton and rubber-stamped by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) – after figures linked to the deal donated to the Clinton Foundation?

Turns out rank-and-file FBI investigators thought there was enough smoke to launch a criminal investigation, but internal delays and disagreements within the DOJ and FBI ultimately caused the inquiry to lapse, newly released records reveal. 

The materials, made public by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and first reported by Just the News, reveal that investigators argued internally over the delays – which allowed the statute-of-limitations to expire and ultimately halt the case.

The Uranium One transaction – involving the sale of a Canadian mining company with substantial U.S. uranium assets to Russia’s state-owned nuclear firm Rosatom – became a flashpoint during Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign. Critics argued that then-Secretary of State Clinton, a member of CFIUS, helped approve the deal while donors connected to Uranium One made large contributions to the Clinton Foundation.

The New York Times reported in 2015 that “as the Russians gradually assumed control of Uranium One in three separate transactions from 2009 to 2013 … a flow of cash made its way to the Clinton Foundation. Uranium One’s chairman used his family foundation to make four donations totaling $2.35 million. Those contributions were not publicly disclosed by the Clintons, despite an agreement Mrs. Clinton had struck with the Obama White House to publicly identify all donors. Other people with ties to the company made donations as well.”

“And shortly after the Russians announced their intention to acquire a majority stake in Uranium One, Mr. [Bill] Clinton received $500,000 for a Moscow speech from a Russian investment bank with links to the Kremlin that was promoting Uranium One stock,” the Times reported. “At the time, both Rosatom and the United States government made promises intended to ease concerns about ceding control of the company’s assets to the Russians. Those promises have been repeatedly broken, records show.” -Just the News

Resistance from senior officials – including then-Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates and then-FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe – slowed the inquiry to the point where statute-of-limitations concerns were later cited to justify shutting it down.

Pennsylvania Officials Let Unsent Mail Pile Up For A Month, But Promise Mail Voting Is Super Secure

Pennsylvania’s mail scandal — that mail vendor Capitol Presort Services reportedly failed to deliver the state’s mail for a month — is another reason we should not trust the mail with our elections.

Philadelphia Inquirer reporter Gillian McGoldrick reported Saturday that 3.4 million official letters from Pennsylvania state agencies were stuck in limbo from Nov. 3 through Dec. 3. The communications did not get sent until last week, after the state fired the mail vendor and hired another one to send the letters.

It is not clear why state workers can’t handle mailing letters without the complication of a contracted vendor.

Some of the delayed letters contained time-sensitive communications about services with important deadlines, including notices for recipients to interact with agencies or lose benefits, according to McGoldrick’s report. Health coverage, SNAP food benefits, child abuse clearances, decisions about elder abuse and foster homes for kids, along with timely notices of hearings — all from the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services — reportedly piled up at the vendor instead of being given to the U.S. Postal Service for delivery.

Important communications from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation were also delayed. Halted mail included driver’s license and vehicle registration renewal reminders, vehicle registration cards, driver’s license camera cards, and address card updates.

Just weeks ago, Gov. Josh Shapiro was making the media rounds, attacking President Donald Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance about putting Pennsylvanians in peril because of the government shutdown, when at the same time his own administration was failing to deliver essential communications about these very services through the mail.

Savannah, Georgia Mayor Makes a Disgusting Remark When Asked About the White Woman in His City Who Suffered Horrifying Injuries After Being Doused with Acid by Lowlife

The mayor of Savannah, Georgia does not want to concern himself with a terrifying crime that happened on his watch and was sure to let a constituent know in no uncertain terms.

As The Gateway Pundit reported last week, a white Georgia woman named Ashley Wasielewski sustained horrifying burns to her face, neck, and scalp after a black man emerged from the bushes at a Forsyth park in Savannah and dumped acid on her.

The suspect, who is still at large, approached the victim from behind and poured the liquid chemical on her. According to police, the attacker was not known to the victim.

Wasielewski is suffering third-degree burns and is currently receiving treatment at Memorial Hospital in Augusta.

The suspect has yet to be caught.

A resident decided to ask Johnson on social media what he and the city government were doing to help Wasielewski.

“Have you actually been to the park?” the resident asked. “Have you contacted the victim and promised, on behalf of Savannah, to support her ongoing recovery?

“Great photoshoot and tender-hearted words, but what is Savannah actually doing?”

Johnson’s reply to these inquiries was snippy and callous.

“Maybe you should take a nap,” Johnson snarked.

There’s No Evidence Australia’s Strict Gun Control Laws Are Effective

emocrats in the United States repeatedly praise Australia’s 1996 gun confiscation law as a successful model to emulate, while many Australians — especially after the Bondi Beach terror attack earlier this week — argue that the confiscation helped but failed to go far enough. Yet the supposed benefits of this policy rest on deeply flawed statistical analysis.

After the Minneapolis school shooting in September, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz claimed, “When they had a school shooting in Scotland or they had an incident in Australia, they simply made changes. … And since they did those things, they don’t have them. We’re an outlier amongst nations in terms of what happens to our children.” Prominent Democrats, including Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and Joe Biden, have echoed this praise for Australia’s 1996 gun confiscation law.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese reinforced this narrative on Monday after the massacre, stating that a prior administration’s gun laws “have made an enormous difference in Australia and are a proud moment of reform, quite rightly, achieved across the parliament with bipartisan support.” Supporters typically point to declines in firearm homicides and firearm suicides as evidence of success.

Relying on that perceived success, Albanese has promised even stricter gun control, arguing that tighter laws would yield even greater benefits. Policymakers already advocate proposals such as limits on the number of firearms individuals may own and periodic license reviews.

For years, major media outlets — including USA Today, The New York Times, and The Washington Post — have published stories crediting Australia’s 1996–1997 gun confiscation with cutting firearm homicide and suicide rates in half and eliminating mass public shootings.

N.Y. Times Contributor Who Went on Bigoted Anti-White Tirade Smears Jillian Michaels as ‘White Nationalist’ 

Former Democrat and celebrity fitness trainer Jillian Michaels stunned New York Times contributor Wajahat Ali after he tried to smear her as a “white nationalist.”

During an episode of “Piers Morgan Uncensored,” Ali attacked Michaels for expressing valid concerns about Islamic extremism. Ali suggested her views are outdated, and then he doubled down, calling Michaels a white nationalist.

Ali stated, “Ahmad Al-Ahmad is a 43-year-old Muslim fruit vendor who, unarmed, decided to bumrush one of the terrorists, disarmed him, took the gun while he was being shot at. He was shot twice. I didn’t realize this at first when I saw that amazing video. But then I later saw that he was shot twice. He held off the other shooter, and he saved lives.”

“In Germany, in March, there was a deranged Saudi national who, by the way, became radicalized by AfD and this type of white nationalism, and ended up hating Islam. He rammed a truck in a terrorist attack through a crowd. You know who stopped him? A Pakistani Muslim cab driver in Germany stopped him.,” he continued.

“When there was an attack on Jews in was in France a couple of years ago, there was an African-Black immigrant who protected them.”

“This is the story of an individual who decided to lean into empathy and decency and compassion and squared off against two individuals who were radicalized, we don’t know how, and saw Jews as the target through their dehumanization. There are 1. 7 billion Muslim people on Earth. Gillian’s talking points are from 2001, which is why I yawned.”

“The DeLorean right now is in 2025.”

Michaels cut in, “They’re not at all, actually.”

Ali continued, “Listen, I’ve been in this for a long time, Gillian. I know you’re discovering this. Congratulations. Let me just finish. I let you say a lot of hateful, stupid, reckless things about Muslim and Islam.

“You want to say 1%? That’s 20 million people,” Michael pressed.

“Gillian, you are….”

“You still have 16 dead, Wajahat.”

“You, by your own admission, are a white nationalist. By your own admission, that’s what you are, a white nationalist. You admitted it,” Ali stated. “I saw the clip.”

“You know I’m Arab, right?” Michaels asked. ” I’m Syrian and Lebanese and Turkish.”

“You’re the one who said it. I didn’t say it. That’s why I was shocked,” Ali continued.

“When did I say I was a white nationalist?” Michaels asked. “When was that?”

“You’re not a white nationalist?” Ali pressed.  “Wasn’t there a clip saying you were a white nationalist? When was that? You’re not a white nationalist.”

“No,” Michaels stated emphatically.

“Okay, interesting. Interesting to know. All right,” he replied.

Michaels then pressed Ali, “Where’s the clip that I said it was a white nationalist?”

A stuttering Ali answered, “I’m under the mistaken impression. I thought you were a white nationalist. I’m glad you’re not. But let me just finish. Since 2001…..”

Michaels cut in, “I’m a not a white nationalist. How about a little homework, Wajahat.”

“How about just a little?”

“All right, let’s do homework. Let’s do homework. Since 2001, Piers, since 2001, you and me, we were against the war on terror. We said that the war on terror would be disastrous. We said that the war on terror, America’s response to 19 foreign hijackers bringing down the two towers would cause immense chaos, dissension. What happened? America went to war with Iraq and Afghanistan off of terrible evidence, off of the same type of bullshit that Gillian is saying right now. If even 1% of Muslims, yada, yada, yada. What happened?”

“It’s all fact-based. You want me to cite the resources?” Michaels pressed. “Where would you like me to start? Pew Research, Counter Terrorism Discourse estimates, the European Court of Human Rights…..Are you kidding me?”

A petulant Ali continued….”Gillian, let me finish. Over 1 million Iraqis were killed. Afghans were killed and tortured. And it led to the radicalization of ISIS. It brought nothing but pain and misery in division.  Muslims, Jews, aren’t going anywhere, folks. We’re in this together. And what we have to realize that there are hate mongers who seek to divide us right now, like Gillian, who want to bring up Islamophobia and anti-seminism.”

“Actually, I’m not trying to divide us at all, Wajahat ” Michaels affirmed. “You’re the one actually has tried to divide us.”

UK To Introduce ‘Anti-Muslim Hate’ Definition

Ministers in the UK are steeling themselves for a storm of criticism as Communities Secretary Steve Reed prepares to unveil a new official definition of “anti-Muslim hate” this week. 

Critics, led by the Free Speech Union, warn that the expansive terminology risks creating a de facto blasphemy law, stifling legitimate debate on issues like grooming gangs and Islamist terrorism.

The shift away from the term “Islamophobia” aims to provide guidance for public bodies, councils, and businesses in combating prejudice against Muslims. Yet, according to leaked drafts, it could label prejudicial stereotyping or “racialisation designed to incite hate” as hateful acts, potentially encompassing discussions that highlight patterns in crimes predominantly involving Muslim perpetrators.
