MAID Offered Canadian MP’s Father Assisted Suicide, But He Never Requested It
LifeNews.com | by Alex Schadenberg
Nov. 11, 2026 | Ottawa, Canada
excerpts from the article below & link to full article
On September 1, 2026, I published an article about a woman in a London, Ontario hospital who was upset after twice being offered euthanasia without requesting it. The woman was particularly upset when the woman in the bed next to her, who didn’t request euthanasia, said Yes to death by euthanasia, after the MAiD [Medical Assistance in Dying] team sold it as a “beautiful death” at her bedside.
Bob Zimmer, Member of Parliament for (Prince George – Peace River – Northern Rockies) published a comment on X after his father, who did not ask for euthanasia was offered MAiD while the family was waiting to bring him home. Zimmer wrote: I watched a nurse at our local hospital offer MAID to my Dad. He was not asking for it, nor had he asked for it.
We were trying to get him home as he was about to pass away and he wanted to be at home to be more comfortable.
So while we were waiting to be cleared to take him home, a nurse approached us and offered MAID to him.
I was disgusted. All the warnings about MAID we debated in the HoC [House of Commons] and warned would happen with the change in legislation and the Liberals said would never happen… …are happening.
Now Canada has the terrible record of having the most MAID deaths in the WORLD at 16,499 in one year alone. CLICK HERE TO READ THE FULL ARTICLE.
Abortionist Says Dismemberment Abortion “Isn’t More Gruesome
Than Any Other Surgery” LifeNews.com| Dave Andrusko
Nov. 11, 2026 | Washington, DC
I ran across a reference today to Sarah Erdreich. You may remember her as the author of Generation Roe: Inside the Future of the Pro-Choice Movement (I wrote about it. The book was awful.) According to her website, she is at work on a second book. Erdreich has an interesting work history, including having “edited reviews of sex toys” and “working in various roles for a pro-choice organizations.” Perfect preparation.
So, it shouldn’t surprise anyone that the headline from one of her posts is “Take It From Me: Abortion Isn’t More Gruesome Than Any Other Surgery.” Erdreich’s tactic in this piece is a sub-set of pro-abortion propaganda. The objective is not hard to figure out: to relativize/trivialize the systematic dismantlement, piece by piece, of unborn babies in a dismemberment abortion.
The ultimate goal? To obscure and/or ridicule the normal human response to butchering unborn babies. God help us.
CLICK HERE TO READ THE FULL ARTICLE. Note from Tiffin RTL: Erdreich was preparing for a wrist surgery. To compare the "gruesome" procedure of her wrist surgery to a dismemberment abortion is a terrible mis-repesentation. It shows Erdreich either doesn't understand what this type of abortion actually involves -- or worse -- Erdreich doesn't care that the baby in the womb suffers from being ripped limb by limb, the skull crushed, and pulled from the mother's body. As expressed by Dave Andrusko "God help us." We recommend using the link above and reading the full article.

Patients Denied Medical Care, Offered Assisted Suicide Instead
LifeNews.com | Sarah Terzo
Nov. 6, 2026 | Washington, DC
Much has been written about how euthanasia in Canada has been used as a cost-saving method because it’s cheaper for the government to offer assisted dying than healthcare to disabled people.
Canada has government-run healthcare, and the Canadian government seeks to save money by withholding care to chronically ill people, leaving many to consider euthanasia as their only choice.
What is less known is that the same thing has been happening in the United States. Only it’s not the government that is trying to save money, but private insurance companies. CLICK HERE TO READ DETAILS IN THE FULL STORY.

Nov. 4, 2026 | Washington, DC
excerpts printed here; also link below to full article
We are far from finished. The results of the election are not good for America, with Democrats taking the majority in the House, the Senate, various state legislatures, and having a majority of Governors’ mansions.
But we have an action plan. Here are the elements:
1. Show people who the Democrats are.
2. Show the Democrats who we are.
3. Show the nation who President Trump is.
4. Use the First Amendment.
5. Intensify the abortion fight.
Forward we go! We have to continue saving this country. This is not a fight from which we ever back away or take a break. CLICK HERE to see details of the 5 steps and to read the full article.

Planned Parenthood May Have to Pay $1.8 Billion for Medicaid Fraud
LifeNews.com |Steven Ertelt |11-11-26 |Washington, DC
The U.S. Department of Justice has notified a federal court that it intends to intervene in a Texas lawsuit accusing Planned Parenthood Federation of America and three of its affiliates of Medicaid fraud.
The case, which seeks roughly $1.8 billion in reimbursements, interest, and penalties, could force the nation’s largest abortion business to confront one of the largest financial judgments in its history.
The suit was originally filed in 2021 by an anonymous whistleblower under the federal False Claims Act. It alleges that Planned Parenthood affiliates continued submitting Medicaid claims in Texas and Louisiana after those states moved to terminate the organization as a provider following investigations that began in 2015.

Another Man Drugged
Another Woman With Abortion Pills
LifeNews.com | Dan Hart | 11-4-26 | Washington, DC
excerpts printed here; also link below to full article
In the latest brutal example of a pregnant woman being forced to consume abortion pills against her will, a former West Point cadet and current Columbia University graduate student has been sued by his former girlfriend for assaulting her with the drugs while she was incapacitated, resulting in the death of her unborn child. Experts are pointing to how the unregulated and widely available drugs are being exploited not just by criminals on the margins of society but by men in the military and in the medical field.
A woman identified as “Jane Doe” filed the lawsuit in New York Supreme Court on October 28 against former Army cadet Caleb T. Suh, who has entered a guilty plea to felony assault after being charged with the crime in federal court in June. According to the suit and plea, both Doe and Suh were cadets at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point when Doe became pregnant in January 2022. Despite repeated demands from Suh that she abort the baby, even threatening “to commit suicide if she did not terminate the pregnancy,” Doe made her intentions clear that she would keep the child.
Suh subsequently appeared to support the pregnancy, but in the meantime stole Doe’s identity in order to establish a fraudulent online pharmacy account in her name, which he used to obtain the abortion pills. He also obtained the sedatives Xanax and Promethazine. According to the lawsuit, he crushed up the sedatives and mixed them into a shake that he told Doe was a “special pregnancy protein powder” shake. On February 4, 2022, Suh brought the drink to Doe’s barracks room, where she consumed it and was overcome by drowsiness and went in and out of consciousness. It was then that “Suh shoved abortion pills into Ms. Doe’s vagina and in her mouth.”
Hours later, she “became seriously ill and was taken to a hospital, where doctors confirmed she was suffering a miscarriage.” Doe reported the incident to the Army’s Criminal Investigation Division at West Point in May of 2022. Suh was charged in federal court in June, eventually pleading guilty to assault. All the while, he enrolled at Cornell University, where he graduated in May and then enrolled in Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health master’s program. Spokespersons for both schools say that they were not aware of Suh’s conviction since he did not disclose the information in his application.
The horrifying incidents appear to be occurring with greater frequency over the last two years, as mifepristone abortion pills have become increasingly easy to obtain online through fraudulent means after the Biden administration removed the in-person dispensing requirement from a licensed physician in December 2021, a rule that the Trump administration has left in place to the shock of the pro-life movement. According to a tracking site compiled by Pregnancy Help News, there have been at least 23 documented cases of expectant mothers being poisoned by abortion pills without their knowledge or consent. Suh’s crime would be the 24th case.
Notably, 15 of the 23 cases have happened in the last four years — the years in which the in-person dispensing requirement was removed. In addition, several of the crimes have been committed by medical professionals, including Ohio physician Hassan Abbas, Virginia physician Sikander Imran, and Washington state nurse practitioner David Coots, in addition to Texas attorney Mason Herring and the aforementioned military service members. Experts like Family Research Council
President Tony Perkins say that these cases suggest that the escalating issue of forced abortion pill poisonings “is not happening on the periphery of society” but is moving into its institutions. CLICK HERE for access to the full article.

We Must Work Hard to Change Hearts & Minds on Abortion
LifeNews.com | David Closson
Nov. 4, 2026 | Washington, DC
excerpts printed here; also link below to full article
Ever since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022, the pro-life movement has faced significant challenges at the ballot box. Unfortunately, that trend largely continued Tuesday as voters in Nevada and Virginia enshrined abortion into their state constitutions and voters in Missouri rejected an effort to reverse its pro-abortion constitutional amendment. One bright spot was Idaho, where voters turned down a measure that would have dramatically expanded abortion in the state.
Political pundits will no doubt devote considerable attention to Democrats’ recapturing control of the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate. However, the outcomes of state ballot measures should not be overlooked. The continued success of abortion-related measures underscores the sobering reality that support for legal abortion remains substantial and that pro-lifers have considerable work to do to persuade their fellow Americans of the dignity and worth of preborn children.
The Challenge Ahead: Hearts and Minds Must Be Changed:
Taken together, Tuesday’s results represent another disappointing chapter for the pro-life movement in the post-Roe era. Although the hard-fought victory in Idaho deserves to be celebrated, the defeats in Missouri, Nevada, and Virginia reveal how deeply abortion has become embedded in the moral imagination of many Americans.
For decades, our culture has increasingly separated sexual freedom from personal responsibility, treating abortion as a necessary safeguard against the consequences of sexual activity. This worldview helps explain why so many Americans remain unwilling to extend legal protections to preborn children, even as advances in medical science continue to reveal the humanity of life in the womb.
Overturning Roe v. Wade returned authority over abortion policy to the American people and their elected representatives, but the outcome of many of the ensuing ballot measures has demonstrated that legal victories alone cannot secure lasting protections for preborn children. That task requires the difficult, patient work of changing hearts and minds, challenging the assumptions of our sexually permissive culture, and persuading our fellow Americans that every human life, from conception to natural death, possesses inherent dignity and deserves the protection of the law.

She Left Planned Parenthood
and Saved Her Baby,
Then She Went Viral
LifeNews.com | Steven Ertelt
Nov. 4, 2026 | Washington, DC
Sierra, a mother of four children, was going through a tough divorce. During the divorce, she found herself unexpectedly pregnant with her fifth child. Sierra was overwhelmed and in a moment of great fear and stress, decided to travel to Planned Parenthood to undergo a chemical abortion procedure.
After the procedure was over, she left Planned Parenthood and was instantly overwhelmed with deep regret.
She kept asking herself, “What had I just done?” She asked God for some sort of sign to help her save her baby. And as she left Planned Parenthood, she got that sign—a physical sign in the grass nearby that said, “If you took the first pill, it’s not too late.” CLICK HERE to read the rest of the story.
Senate Democratic Caucus to EPA:
Stop Protecting People from Abortion Drug Water Pollution
The Washington Stand - 10-17-26 by Quinn Delamater
The entirety of the U.S. Senate Democratic Caucus has requested that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) turn a blind eye when it comes to its investigation of drinking water polluted with abortion drug contaminants.
In a Thursday letter to EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin spearheaded by Senator Patty Murray (D-Wash.), the group of lawmakers claim that the investigation “is a stark departure from past EPA practice and serves to further this administration’s attacks on reproductive health care,” and “distracts” from the organization's “critical role protecting Americans from known chemical pollutants in our water systems.”
In July 2026, Students for Life of America published a peer reviewed study confirming remnants of the abortion drugs are found in drinking water. “Past research has shown that steroid hormones and other endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs) are present in environmental water, with implications for human and wildlife health. Abortion providers have shifted a large part of their practice to medication-induced abortion, using the anti-progesterone synthetic steroid hormone mifepristone,” the study noted.

Democrats are Lying About Miscarriage to Promote
Unlimited Abortions
LifeNews.com | Maria Gallagher
Oct. 20, 2026 | Washington, DC
The Pennsylvania Democratic Party is misleading voters in a mailer about miscarriage.
The Democrats are falsely claiming that a woman experiencing a miscarriage died because of a Texas pro-life law.
The mailer, authorized by pro-abortion Democrat Congressional candidate Janelle Stelson, says, “When Joselli was 28 she had a miscarriage. Because of an abortion ban, she died 3 days later.”
But, as Ashley Solano of Texas Right to Life noted in National Right to Life News Today, “Texas’ Pro-Life laws allow for medical intervention in cases of miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy. In a miscarriage, the baby dies naturally and must be removed from the mother’s womb due to possible risks of infection like sepsis.”
The scare tactics launched by Stelson and her Democrat allies are unconscionable. Miscarriage treatment is not an abortion; women should not be told otherwise.
Stelson is involved in a race to defeat pro-life incumbent GOP Congressman Scott Perry.
Perry notes that Stelson has repeatedly lied about his remarks and his record. CLICK HERE to read the rest of the story.

Virtual Abortion Pill Dispensary Disregards Accuracy and Safety
LiveAction.org - by Carole Novielli - 10-15-26
Though virtual abortion pill dispensary Abuzz Health attempts to use humor to advertise abortion drugs on social media, its lack of accuracy and seeming disregard for the safety of women and minors just aren't funny.
Key Takeaways:
-
Abuzz Health, which dispenses abortion pills, tells minors that "even if [they] don't have support from your parents," they can get the abortion pill — and refers them to places providing it.
-
Despite the FDA's limit of 10 weeks for the abortion pill, Abuzz refers to providers who give it to women up to 12 weeks and 6 days.
-
Abuzz FAQs make incorrect claims about the safety and effectiveness of the abortion pill.
-
Abuzz also tells women they don't need to disclose they've taken abortion pills if they experience complications. CLICK HERE for the entire article.
CANADA WILL EUTHANIZE MENTALLY INCOMPETENT PEOPLE HERE'S HOW
LifeNews.com | Alex Schadenberg
Oct. 8, 2026 | Ottawa, Canada
Justice Minister Sean Fraser and Health Minister Marjorie Michel stated on October 7, 2026 that the federal government will introduce legislation, that will prevent the implementation of euthanasia for mental illness as a sole criteria.
However, the government legislation will also permit euthanasia by advanced request.
Euthanasia by advanced request is a very dangerous concept as it permits doctors and nurse practitioners to kill someone who has become incompetent, based on an advanced request. CLICK HERE for the full story.

Physician-Assisted Suicide:
A Perversion of Mercy
by Kevin Jorrey
article excerpts below
In recent years, the push for Physician-Assisted Suicide (PAS) has been framed as a compassionate choice, a way to end suffering and uphold “personal dignity.” Yet the Catholic Church, rooted in Scripture and Tradition, makes clear that such practices gravely misunderstand both human dignity and authentic compassion.
In Canada, PAS has been legal for several years, and the consequences are devastating. In 2023 alone, over 15,000 Canadians died under what is called Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD), a phrase that hides the harsh reality of euthanasia. When physicians abandon their oath to “do no harm” and instead participate in killing, the foundations of healthcare itself begin to collapse. CLICK HERE to read the FULL article.
Note from Tiffin Right to Life -- Be Aware: House Bill 835 was introduced this past Spring in the Ohio House to try to enact MAiD legislation for the State of Ohio. We must speak out against this to demand that MAiD does not become the law in Ohio.
THE REALITY OF
ELECTIVE ABORTION ON DEMAND
For many people, abortion is an abstract idea concerning personal freedom. They fail to grasp the true reality of what happens when a more powerful person chooses elective abortion (also known as abortion on demand). Elective abortion is a violent and fatal assault on an innocent human being growing and developing in his or her mother's womb with the sole intention of killing the growing child. Elective abortion is spoken about in euphemisms to hide the brutal reality of what occurs. This is why it is necessary to bring the truth forward.
EVEN IF AN ACT IS LEGAL
IT DOES NOT NECESSARILY MAKE IT MORAL
Ask yourself this question, "If Ohio law said it is legal to steal less than $500 from a bank, and you will not be prosecuted for doing so, would that make it morally right to steal?"
Many people incorrectly assume, "If it's legal, it must be moral."
When thinking rationally, people understand that ELECTIVE ABORTION ON DEMAND is now legal in many states, but
IS NOT and WILL NEVER BE a moral act.
Rational-thinking people further understand the science that medical care after a spontaneous miscarriage is NOT elective abortion because in a spontaneous miscarriage the baby in the womb is already deceased and medical care is necessary to prevent physical harm to the woman.
Rational-thinking people understand that "Elective Abortion On Demand" is NOT health care.
