Nova Scotia RCMP Veterans Targeted by Canadas MAiD Program

By Kelsi Sheren | KelsiSheren.substack.com I just received an email from a retired member of the RCMP: “I served for 32 years on the West Coast and retired in 2019. As a Christian and a retired member of the RCMP, I wanted to share this with you. I’m trying to wrap my head around this shocking email. I’m shocked it’s come to this.” – L.K. On November 20th, an email quietly dropped into the inboxes of Nova Scotia RCMP veterans. Standard, polite and in true Canadian fashion, formal and sanitized. This was no mistake; this wasn’t information. This was something different. (Scroll to the bottom to see the email). This was grooming. Yes, I said it. Grooming—coercion. The “opportunity” was a “Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) Program in Nova Scotia.” This is a state-aligned institution normalizing death as a service to the very people they already failed to support in life .This was an information session, to “educate” veterans whose rates of PTSD and suicidality were already sky high, as to how they can apply or use MAiD. The invited speaker? Dr. Gordon Gubitz Location? None other than a place of worship, a church hall.  The target audience? VETERANS. This is what I’ve been talking about. Welcome to the soft-coercive stage of Canada’s MAiD regime. Let’s meet Dr. Gordon Gubitz. The same Dr. Gubitz, who is a MAiD assessor and provider (killer), is the Clinical Lead for MAiD in Nova Scotia, which means MAiD is not only his passion, but he spends his work focused on ending lives.  This “doctor” sits on the board of CAMAP—the Canadian Association of MAiD Assessors and Providers—the pro-death organization that creates all the pathways for Canadians to be killed while manipulating the court systems in their favour. More death to them is the goal.  This “doctor” helped write the national MAiD curriculum and trains doctors on how to present MAiD as a “care option.” This guy is literally a death pusher and peddler of the dark. Think of him a the drug dealer for death. They didn’t invite a trauma specialist. They didn’t invite a palliative expert. They didn’t invite a police mental-health advocate. They didn’t invite a mental health expert. They didn’t invite a doctor who looks at psychedelic-assisted therapy. They didn’t invite hope. They only invited death. Nova Scotia RCMP veterans invited a man whose job is to facilitate, provide and promote nothing but death, and whose organization teaches clinicians how to introduce MAiD (assisted SUICIDE) to patients who didn’t ask for it, bring it up or want it in their life. Let me explain something: If you’re a veteran dealing with PTSD, chronic pain, TBI, disability, or bureaucracy-induced despair, this isn’t “education.” This is targeted psychological pressure. Coercion, CAMAP and Dying with Dignity’s claim to fame. No one will say the words out loud. No one will write “we think some of you should consider dying.” They don’t need to, when just dangling the carrot is good enough to get the job done. Coercion today is subtle, normalized in the community. It’s dressed up like Christmas cookies in a church hall, framed as loving “support” being held by one of the most prolific death pushers in the game. Simply funnelling veterans into the system one “information session” at a time. Like cattle through the gates of hell, with CAMAP waiting in the shadows. This time not with a bold gun—they would see that as “too humane”—but with a pen, a checklist, a needle and a paralytic. Canada already proved it’s willing to dangle MAiD (assisted suicide, murder, early death) in front of struggling veterans. I helped break these stories and bring our veterans’ stories to the masses. I’m interviewing more by the day, who’ve been offered death over life illegally. Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) employees got caught offering MAiD to veterans who never asked for it, including one veteran trying to get a wheelchair ramp—my friend Christine. So do me a favour, spare us the “this is innocent” act. Veterans have been coerced before, and it’s happening again right in front of your faces. Now the RCMP Veterans’ Association is rolling out the red carpet for the prevailers of death. The dark ones who feed on the souls of those who couldn’t bear to take another breath. This is not an “opportunity.” This is a sales pitch. And the product is your death. People keep asking me why veterans are being targeted: Because they’re the perfect targets, don’t you see? Veterans, on the daily, are dealing with chronic pain, combat trauma, moral injury, sanctuary trauma, disability, suicidality, lack of services, financial strain, bureaucratic obstruction, and the government doesn’t just know it; it caused it, and it supports it, and so do the MAiD, pro-death cult architects. The MAiD lobby knows veterans are “high-yield” candidates, and not because they want to die, but because the system has already worn them down, like water slowly dripping over the rocks.  The Liberal government just cut OVER 4 BILLION dollars in care for veterans. Veterans aren’t being shown the full picture; they aren’t given any hope. They’re being shown the early exit. What we call in some circles, being shown the path to “self-selection.” This RCMP veteran’s email is a soft-touch version of coercion if I’ve ever seen one: “We’re not telling you to choose MAiD… we’re just putting the idea on the table, in a friendly community space, with a trusted expert who helps design the national MAiD system.” Whose job is to provide you with all the pathways to wanting to kill yourself. That’s how you manipulate a vulnerable population without leaving fingerprints. Dr. Gubitz isn’t neutral. He is the system. Gubitz isn’t walking into that church as an independent medical educator. He is walking in as the clinical gatekeeper for MAiD in Nova Scotia, i.e., HELL. He’s nothing more than one of the ideological engines behind national MAiD training. A CAMAP insider, the organization pushing to expand and normalize MAiD (assisted SUICIDE) at every level of “healthcare,” if you can even call it that anymore. CAMAP literally publishes guidance on how clinicians should bring up MAiD as a care option. Not reactively. Proactively. When you pair a vulnerable group with a man trained to present MAiD as “equitable access,” your “information session” becomes a recruitment funnel. How is everyone okay with this? You are directly influencing and priming veterans for death under the banner of “support.” It’s an illusion, it’s predatory behaviour! It’s not informed consent in any way. It’s manipulation. And holding it in a church? That’s strategic psychological laundering. Churches are trusted spaces. They lower defences—help you to open your mind. Churches, to most, signal moral legitimacy, so hosting a MAiD talk in a church hall tells veterans, “your community approves. Your faith approves this is acceptable, this is dignified, you don’t have to fight or feel guilty, ” It cloaks a controversial, ethically fraught practice in community warmth. It’s taking advantage of the safety and sanctity of the church. That’s not an accident. It’s a tactic. This reeks of propaganda wrapped in hospitality. This is the playbook of a system that wants to solve suffering by eliminating the sufferer. Canada won’t fix the care gaps. It won’t fix the mental-health crisis. It won’t fix VAC’s failures, and it sure as hell won’t fix disability supports. But it will happily fund a national MAiD curriculum, expand eligibility, remove guardrails, and now, apparently, send MAiD providers on a tour of vulnerable communities. Veterans have always been canaries in Canada’s moral coal mine. If the state can normalize MAiD to the people who wore its uniform, it can normalize it to anyone. And that’s the point. This story isn’t about one email. It’s about a culture shift engineered from the top down. This is how you create acceptance: First, make MAiD look compassionate. Then, bring it into community spaces. Then, present to vulnerable groups. Then, call it “support.” Then, remove the stigma. Then, remove the safeguards. Then, expand eligibility. Then, tell the public: “People are choosing MAiD because it’s dignified.” They leave out the part where the system helped manufacture despair. Veterans deserve better than an invitation to die. They deserve care, treatment, advocacy, and someone who doesn’t treat their suffering as a problem to be erased. Not a church basement with coffee and a state-aligned MAiD architect explaining their “options.” This email isn’t benign. It is a warning. One that Canada should have heeded years ago. If the country is comfortable offering death to the people who served it, it’s comfortable offering it to anyone. And that’s exactly what’s happening. Please feel free to call or email them and let them know how this makes you feel. Originally published at kelsisheren.substack.com
