A grieving family is sounding the alarm over Canada’s controversial “assisted suicide” system after their 26-year-old son, who struggled with seasonal depression, was euthanized under the country’s expanding death-on-demand laws.
Kiano Vafaeian, a blind man living with Type 1 diabetes, was killed by lethal injection in December through the Canadian government’s taxpayer-funded Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) program.
MAiD euthanizes patients, deemed to have “grievous and irremediable” medical conditions, with lethal drugs.
Canada broadened eligibility in 2021 to include people with chronic illnesses and disabilities, and lawmakers have debated extending access further to certain mental-health conditions.

The rapidly expanding slippery-slope laws are raising growing concern among critics who warn that the system is drifting toward normalizing suicide for vulnerable individuals.
Family Alleges Doctor “Coached” Path to Death
Vafaeian’s mother, Margaret Marsilla,saysthe family fought for years to keep their son from pursuing assisted suicide as he battled depression that worsened during the winter months following a devastating car accident at age 17.
But last year, British Columbia MAiD providerDr. Ellen Wiebeapproved Vafaeian as a so-called “Track 2” patient, meaning his natural death was not considered reasonably imminent.
The family says they learned of the approval only days later.
