TL;DR:
No, Canada hasn’t “killed 2.1 million people” with MAID. The official total since 2016 is 60,301, with 15,343 MAID provisions in 2023 (about 1 in 20 deaths).
MAID for mental illness alone is not legal today—it’s delayed until March 17, 2027. And while church burnings and vandalism are real and serious, Canada’s 2023 hate‑crime data show the vast majority of religion‑targeted crimes were against Jews (70%) and Muslims (16%), not Christians. Like, at all.
Meanwhile, a U.S.–aligned outrage machine (and its northern imitators) is pumping both narratives for clicks, cash, and campaigns.
If you’ve scrolled X lately, you’ve seen the alarm bells: Canada is killing the poor; Canada is euthanizing kids; Canada is a Christian‑hating dystopia that needs to be invaded by America!. It’s a perfect culture‑war twofer that is being introduced as Canada’s latest disinformation cancer, fully supported by MAGA, JD Vance, and MAPLE MAGA (The Conservative Party of Canada). JD’s bestie from Harvard, MAPLE MAGA MP Jamil Jivani, even set up a snazzy website and recorded this high-quality video by a Christmas tree to take the grift public;)
MAID panic — packaged for U.S. audiences by Fox segments and viral clips, then recycled by partisan outlets. Tucker Carlson aired repeated pieces framing MAID as a state killing machine (including “mentally ill” and “mature minors” claims). These segments routinely overreach—and they travel.
“Anti‑Christian bias” — branded domestically by Conservative MP Jamil Jivani’s (JD Vance’s Harvard roommate) Protect Christians Canada campaign and echoed by partisan outlets. The slogan is simple; the data, less accommodating to say the least.
This keeps getting turbocharged by coordinated social‑media networks targeting Canadian politics with U.S. right‑wing and RT‑sourced content—artificially amplifying sensational claims ahead of the election. Canadian MAPLE MAGA politicians are working with their equally disengenuous and Evangelical counterparts to undercut Canada’s sterling reputation on the world stage, to destabilize Mark Carney’s incredible approval rating, all based on two lies.
In short, it’s all nuclear-grade MAGA-funded bullshit, and here’s why…
The law & the delay: Parliament postponed any expansion to include mental illness as a sole condition until March 17, 2027 (Bill C‑62). Claims that “Canada is euthanizing people just for depression right now” are false.
The numbers: 2023: 15,343 MAID provisions (4.7% of deaths), bringing the 2016–2023 total to 60,301. That’s nowhere near seven figures. Growth has slowed compared with 2019–2022.
Who gets MAID: Older adults, overwhelmingly with serious illness; cancer remains the top diagnosis (almost 70%).
When high‑follower accounts scream “2.1 million,” they’re not misinformed—they’re manufacturing shock content. Canadians have the right to die with dignity, and it drives Canadian evangelical cult members crazy. They think life is God breathed and taking your own life is “the unforgivable sin,” which precludes you from getting into their bogus heaven. MAGA is funded and fueled by evangelicals who’d love nothing more than to bring their holy war to Canada as a pretext to steal our natural resources and destroy Canadian sovereignty, and their MAPLE MAGA counterparts are more than happy to help.
Fox/Tucker pipeline: Multiple Carlson segments hyped (or outright misstated) MAID eligibility and “mature minor” claims—catnip for U.S. culture‑war audiences and a steady source of viral Canadian fear content.
Viral video grifts: The Jordan Peterson/Kelsi Sheren clip—“The Horrifying Truth…”—was systematically debunked by Canadian MAID clinicians and advocates for basic errors and purposeful conflations. A video that HUNDREDS of Evangelical Extremist websites have shared for years.
Out‑of‑context “investigations”: Critical reporting and opinion about MAID (e.g., The Atlantic’s “Canada Is Killing Itself” headline) gets clipped and weaponized by the outrage economy—stripped of nuance, wrapped in doom. (The article itself is worth reading; the memeified versions are not.)
Coordinated amplification: Reset Tech’s research (reported by The Logic) showed a network of X accounts pumping misinformation into Canadian feeds; the Financial Times found a flood of right‑wing, often misleading content from U.S. accounts ahead of the vote. This is the distribution superhighway both MAID and “anti‑Christian bias” ride on.
Bottom line: This isn’t an organic “concern.” It’s a cross‑border content operation that rewards whichever story—MAID, “war on Christians,” take your pick—gets the most engagement. And it’s digital chum targeted at Christian extremists specifically.
Which brings us back to the “anti-Christian bias” bullshite…
The campaign is real. Conservative MP Jamil Jivani launched Protect Christians Canada in Dec 2024: a petition‑led initiative warning of “anti‑Christian bigotry” and “overreach.” That’s a documented political campaign.
The numbers aren’t in that script. Statistics Canada’s 2023 release: 70% of religion‑targeted hate crimes were against Jews; 16% against Muslims. Anti‑Catholic/Christian incidents exist, but are much lower than those of the two categories. (See the official infographic above.)
Church fires, with context: Since May 2021, at least 33 churches have been burned to the ground across Canada; 24 were confirmed arsons by early 2024, with many cases unsolved and motives varied (20 of the 24 were ‘deconsecrated’ and abandoned churches on indigenous land) - and not the “100+ burned” figure tossed around in political talking points.
Latest spin: Pierre Poilievre recently claimed Christians “may be the number one” victims of hate‑based violence; that TOTALLY conflicts with StatCan’s 2023 data.
Reality check: Hate against any faith community is intolerable. I give the indigenous population a pass, you know, because of 200 years of genocide and abuse at the hands of “Christians.” But the distribution of anti‑religious hate in 2023 doesn’t support ANY “Canada vs. Christians” thesis. That’s politics, not statistics. And like I said in a Twitter post recently, Canadians aren’t anti-Christian, we’re anti religion ause we’re educated and understand the origin of every man-made religion is a man-made cult. What is the present-day difference between a cult and a religion? Non-profit tax status/membership size, and you can Google that if you like.
Trump‑era framing, 2025: The White House issued a Fact Sheet on “Eradicating Anti‑Christian Bias” and designated “Antifa” a domestic terrorist organization, followed by a presidential memorandum to counter “domestic terrorism and organized political violence.” Civil‑liberties and legal groups warn these directives cast a wide net over ideology and nonprofits. Whatever your view, they create fertile propaganda soil: critics of religion or the state are recast as security threats. The cross‑border message machine then applies that lens to Canada.
Trump went a step further in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s murder by signing NSPM-7, making “anti-Christian” bias a pillar of “terrorism in America" last week. So Jivani’s bullshit “Canada is attacking Christians” psyop is either perfectly timed or totally coordinated with his boy JD VANCE, and MAPLE MAGA/MAGA is attached at the evangelical hip.
To be precise: Those U.S. directives are real; claims that they declare a Canadian “national emergency” or directly target Canadians are spin. What they do is hand an easy talking point to U.S. influencers and their Canadian allies: label the opponent “anti‑Christian” or “Antifa‑adjacent,” then flood the zone.
“1.1 million Canadians killed by MAID” — Made‑up. Official total since 2016: 60,301; 15,343 in 2023 (4.7% of deaths).
“MAID for mental illness is legal now” — False. Delayed to Mar 17, 2027 by Bill C‑62.
“Canada euthanizes minors without consent” — No. A viral claim debunked by Canadian experts and advocates.
“Christians are the #1 hate‑crime target” — Not what the 2023 data show. Most religion‑targeted cases were antisemitic, then anti‑Muslim.
“100+ churches burned down” — Inflated. Credible reviews found ~33 destroyed since May 2021; 24 confirmed arsons. Motives vary; many cases unsolved. Twenty-one were deconsecrated and were on indigenous land (horrific residential schools).
Coordinated networks: Investigators found clusters of X accounts seeding and amplifying misleading Canadian content—often recycling U.S. right‑wing and RT links. That’s not “free speech;” it’s reach gaming. Human Events (owned by Jack Psobiec), Elon Musk, and other strategic accounts. This always comes from the MAPLE MAGA politicians or their fraudulent “media partners” like Canada Proud or Rebel News
Outrage incentives: U.S. media figures (Fox segments, pundit podcasts) and partisan sites monetize Canadian panic. Human Events (where Jack Posobiec is a senior figure) runs a steady stream of MAID‑alarm/Anti-Canadian content—part of the same funnel that turns nuance into rage‑bait.
Then the hand‑off: Canadian surrogates repackage the U.S. takes—“Canada is killing people,” “Christians under attack”—for local consumption. Rinse, quote‑tweet, repeat. The Financial Times has already flagged the U.S. content surge in Canadian political feeds.
MAID facts: Health Canada’s 2023 report, plus Justice Canada’s page on the 2027 delay. Start here whenever a number sounds cartoonishly large.
Religious hate crime data: Statistics Canada’s 2023 release and infographic show who’s actually being targeted most. Data beats vibes. Statistics Canada
Debunks: Dying With Dignity Canada’s detailed refutations of viral MAID claims. (When a video leads with “Nazi euthanasia,” you already know what kind of “analysis” is coming.)
Ask for the primary. If it isn’t Health Canada, Justice Canada, or Statistics Canada, assume embellishment until proven otherwise.
Check the date and the jurisdiction. U.S. headlines about “mentally ill eligible in March” were about proposed timelines that Canada then delayed to 2027. Old takes are still circulating.
Separate crime from narrative. Church arsons are crimes and should be condemned. But claiming that means “Christians are the #1 hate‑crime target” contradicts ALL of Canada’s 2023 data.
Recognize the op. If a take fits snugly into a U.S. partisan talking point and explodes overnight across look‑alike accounts, you’re looking at distribution, not discovery.
Yes, the administration issued a “Countering Domestic Terrorism” memorandum and an Antifa designation order, and published a fact sheet on “Eradicating Anti‑Christian Bias.” Those moves are now being used rhetorically to badge opponents—including Canadians—as “anti‑Christian” or “terror‑adjacent.” That framing is the point. The best antidote: facts and law, not memes.
Canada is not a death cult, and Canadians aren’t “anti‑Christian” by default because we can read a chart. The “MAID panic” and “anti‑Christian bias” blitzes are two prongs of the same import‑export outrage racket. Don’t feed it. Debunk it.
Every F****** Time.
