Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

I am a mental health advocate who has healed substantially from three severe disorders. Over the last few months, I was supporting Bill C-218 (Conservative bill). This bill was trying to “permanently stop” the expansion of medical assistance in dying (MAiD) for those with mental illness. Life and death are always in God’s Loving and Sovereign Hands.

On October 7, 2026, this bill was supposed to go forward. Shockingly, the Liberal Party prevented this. To keep control of this important issue (before a major vote), the Liberal Party stated they would create their own legislation and put an “indefinite pause” (rather than a permanent stop) on MAiD for mental illness. This is something the Liberal Party has done repeatedly for 5 years. Unfortunately, and disappointingly, Bill C-218 did not go forward. The Liberal Party (the majority) voted against it. The Liberal Party has promised to stop the previously planned expansion of MAiD in March 2027 with this indefinite pause. This is good news if they follow through with their promise. However, unfortunately, this does not permanently stop the expansion of MAiD.

I (and countless others) am living proof that healing is ALWAYS possible. Lives are precious, sacred, invaluable, and priceless. The length of life and timing of death are in God’s Hands. We must always hold on to the sanctity of life. The solution is NEVER to allow the choice of “death over life”, but to put all our efforts into improving broken mental health care systems so that they are more effective, efficient, and successful in encouraging and motivating sufferers to seek immediate help, welcoming them into places of warmth and care with open arms. This will lead to healing, recovery, and a bright future for all sufferers, and as they thrive, they will then help others who are struggling. With love, faith, and support comes healing, hope, and purpose beyond anything imaginable.

Please pray that the hearts and minds of the Liberal Party leaders are convicted by the Holy Spirit to put an indefinite pause on MAiD for mental illness. Additionally, that they also decide not to allow “advance requests” for MAiD for those suffering from diseases like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s Disease. This is something they are planning to do. We certainly need a miracle here. Again, life and death are always in God’s Hands. Finally, please pray that once this is paused, more voices speak up, and there is a major transformation of our mental health care systems nationwide so that, eventually, MAiD for mental illness is permanently stopped.

Also pray that all leaders in the Government of Canada (and all leaders worldwide) come to know, believe, and trust in Jesus Christ as their Saviour, King, Lord, and God. That they are convicted by the Holy Spirit and find Salvation in Jesus Christ, leading to Heaven. May they surrender their lives to our Incredibly Loving God and lead their countries according to God’s Will, which is centred on love, hope, peace, forgiveness, and so much more.

Finally, please pray for all in my prayer book. Thank you.

We pray this in the PRECIOUS and MIGHTY NAME of JESUS CHRIST. AMEN AND AMEN.

Love your brother in Christ, Christopher
