MAiD raised with Vancouver priest during hospital care — twice

A Vancouver priest recovering from a hip fracture at Vancouver General Hospital says he was twice offered assisted death by health-care staff who knew he was a priest and opposed to euthanasia — a practice critics say is growing as medical professionals are increasingly encouraged to initiate such conversations.

"There are some things you just don't talk about to some people," said Father Larry Holland, who has completed studies in health-care chaplaincy in addition to serving at numerous parishes in the Archdiocese of Vancouver.

He described his reaction when a doctor brought up the option of MAiD should his condition deteriorate. "I think I was very shocked," he said. "It is such a sensitive subject."

Father Holland, 79, is currently convalescing at VGH after suffering a hip fracture from a fall in his bathroom on Christmas Day. He spoke to The B.C. Catholic about the offers of medical assistance in dying (MAiD) from two health-care professionals, despite their knowing he was a Catholic priest.

Father Holland said he wasn't dying then or now and that the doctor's mention of MAiD left him "kind of silent" for a moment. The doctor then raised the subject again, saying it's "something they have to discuss with someone who's been given a terminal diagnosis."

Father Holland recalled telling the doctor he was morally opposed to euthanasia. The doctor explained that "he just wanted to make sure that, if a [terminal] diagnosis came up or not ... I knew of the different services I had access to."

Weeks later, a second offer of MAiD came from a nurse who the priest said seemed uncomfortable raising the topic and was likely doing so out of compassion because of the pain he was enduring.

"It's a false compassion, really," he said.

A spokesman for Vancouver Coastal Health, which operates VGH, told The B.C. Catholic in an email that "staff may consider bringing up MAiD based on their clinical judgment, provided they possess the necessary knowledge and skills to do so."

Staff are also "responsible for answering questions when patients bring up the topic of MAiD," the spokesman said.

The two incidents arise as Canada approaches 100,000 assisted dying deaths, a milestone explored in a B.C. Catholic series starting this week. Over the next several weeks, the paper will look at how a decade of legalized killing has reshaped health care, ethics, and attitudes toward life and death in Canada.

Father Larry Lynn, the Archdiocese's pro-life chaplain, said he was shocked to hear about Father Holland's case.

"This must surely be among the most appalling examples of Canada's coercive and insensitive euthanasia regime," Father Lynn said in an interview.

He said it's disturbing that a health-care provider suggests euthanasia with any patient, and particularly when the patient is a consecrated religious known to be morally opposed. "It places the medical practitioner into the role of the devil, tempting a vulnerable person into mortal sin."

He's equally troubled that Canadian euthanasia providers aren't ruling out initiating discussions with Roman Catholics about MAiD. In a document titled Bringing up Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) as a clinical care option, the Canadian Association of MAiD Assessors and Providers recommends against assuming patients oppose MAiD because of their faith.

The document says, "Health care professionals may draw incorrect assumptions about a person's views on MAiD; e.g., they may assume that a patient objects to MAiD because she is a Roman Catholic nun, and yet Roman Catholic nuns and others dedicated to a faith-based way of life have requested MAiD." The booklet does not provide a source for the information.

An updated version published in March removes the Catholic reference but gives the same advice regarding people of a "faith community" and even those of "strong faith."

Father Lynn called it "diabolical" to use a nun as an example for overcoming a patient's moral objections.

The booklet reflects a recent trend of encouraging health-care personnel to initiate MAiD discussions with patients. In November, The B.C. Catholic reported on a little-known 2023 Health Canada document urging health authorities and professional bodies to adopt "practice standards" requiring doctors and nurse practitioners to raise MAiD with certain patients.

The MAiD assessors and providers document similarly says physicians and nurse practitioners involved in care planning and consent processes "have a professional obligation to initiate a discussion about MAiD if a patient might be eligible for MAiD." However, Health Canada does not have the authority to require provinces or health authorities to adopt such guidelines and The B.C. Catholic found no evidence of any public agency or professional body in B.C. doing so.

The Canadian Association of MAiD Assessors and Providers uses the example of a Catholic nun to warn against assuming patients oppose MAiD because of their faith.

Amanda Achtman, creator of the anti-euthanasia project Dying to Meet You and ethics director of Canadian Physicians for Life, says initiating MAiD discussions in a medical setting is a form of coercion that attacks patients' deepest convictions when they're vulnerable. To "torment" someone who has deeply held beliefs with an offer of MAiD is "an attack on their identity," Achtman said.

Father Holland admitted he was in so much pain that he could "feel the temptation" to accept MAiD. "It's a human reaction. We always look for the easy way out."

Conservative MP Garnett Genuis has introduced Bill C-260, An Act to Prevent Coercion of Persons Not Seeking Medical Assistance in Dying, which would prohibit federal employees from proactively offering or recommending MAiD. The bill resulted from incidents of bureaucrats such as veterans counsellors trying to steer vulnerable people toward assisted dying.

The Alberta government introduced legislation in March that would restrict regulated health professionals from providing information about MAiD to their patients unless the patient brings it up. The Safeguards for Last Resort Termination of Life Act would also restrict the public display of MAiD information, such as posters, within health-care facilities.

The bill is worth supporting, said Achtman, who lives in Calgary. "Simply being offered euthanasia already kills the person, because it defeats and deflates their sense of self-worth and value."

The unwanted initiation of MAiD discussions in Canada made international headlines in March after Achtman shared the story of an 84-year-old woman, Miriam Lancaster, who went to VGH last year for severe back pain. She said the first doctor she spoke with in the emergency room raised MAiD before any diagnostic work had been done. Lancaster's daughter was present and confirmed the incident, adding her mother eventually responded to rehabilitation and rest.

The Catholic chaplain at VGH, Father Ronald Sequeira, said it's a constant struggle to help suffering patients not lose hope. He tries to offer them "some kind of encouragement and comfort," but many give up.

"The moment you lose hope, the devil comes in, in different personalities, and says, 'Do you want MAiD? I don't want people to suffer.'"

Patients often don't realize that suffering is redemptive, he said. "God makes us more pure, more strong, through the suffering when we offer it up," Father Sequeira said. "So we give hope — help them not to lose hope."

Father Holland said turning down an offer of death opens one to new experiences. Even enduring pain "can encourage growth," he said. "It can motivate you, it can open up new worlds, new vistas, new opportunities," including enriched relationships.

He said he is sharing his story in the hope it will help others. "I went through it; you can go through it too."
