Canadian doctor considers euthanasia the best work she has done.

Alex Schadenberg

British actress, comedian and disability rights activist, Liz Carr, produced a BBC documentary titled - Better off Dead? that was first aired on May 14. Carr is best known for her role as Clarissa Mullery on the BBC series Silent Witness.

One of the scenes in the Better off Dead? documentary features Carr interviewing Canadian euthanasia doctor, Ellen Wiebe. (Link to the scene)

David Kraydon wrote an article that was published in The Post Millennial on October 9 concerning Carr's documentary. Carr asks her about euthanasia and Wiebe responds:

“I love my job. You know, I always loved being a doctor and I delivered over a thousand babies, and I took care of families, but this is the very best work I've ever done in the last seven years. And people ask me why? And I think, well, doctors like grateful patients, and nobody's more grateful than my patients now and their families.”

Ellen Wiebe laughing
Carr wonders if Wiebe is concerned that Canada’s euthanasia program will go too far. Kraydon writes that Wiebe shuts down that debate by stating:

“What you're saying is to protect what you consider vulnerable people. You are condemning others to unbearable suffering, unbearable suffering, and I am so glad, so glad that I'm Canadian and that we have this law so that people can choose that or not choose that, but to say that somebody has to suffer like that is simply cruel,”

Better off Dead? viewers were shocked when Wiebe giggled while talking about euthanasia.

Professor Christopher Lyon told National Post writer Sharon Kirkey that:
“Some providers have counts in the hundreds — this isn’t normal, for any occupation,” he said. “Even members of the military at war do not typically kill that frequently. I think that’s a question that we’ve not really ever asked.”

Lyon recently published an article concerning health-care serial killers and Canada's euthanasia law.

Ellen Wiebe may be Canada's most prolific euthanasia doctor having killed hundreds.

I find this incredible! How can murder be allowed in any circumstance

It would be very unusual for a serious person, such as a palliative care clinician, who spends time helping large numbers of people who are dying, to "giggle" about their work. They might express compassion for their patients and families, and high levels of knowledge, and may be quietly satisfied that they are doing their best. But Dr Weibe exults in this in a way that is profoundly unsettling. Enjoying and being excited by this power she has been given to kill people is not healthy for her, or anyone else. No matter what you think about assisted suicide. This attitude is so wrong.

I can understand Ms. Wiebe's joy in her work if she thinks she is sending her victims off to heaven, where they will be so much happier. But our Creator has a divine plan for each of us, with a destiny, & we are not to hurry our trip to heaven.
An individual's suffering is to encourage that individual & those around them to wake up to the power of patient, ongoing prayer, forgiveness, & following Jesus & our Creator's 10 commandments & moment by moment guidance.
I'm pretty sure the families of the babies Ms. Wiebe has birthed are happier than she knows.

I may be wrong but I believe Ellen Wiebe also performs abortions. That would make her a killer at both ends of human life. What I do know is that the Trudeaus ;Pierre and Justin ,have given licence to the "compassionate", like Wiebe, to kill at will .
