Multiple veterans looking for help say they were instead offered medical aid in dying by Veterans Affairs Canada. It’s clear that it’s not just one rogue agent — it’s department policy, as Mark Meincke discusses this week with guest host Brian Lilley. Meincke, himself a veteran recovering from PTSD, is host of Operation Tango Romeo, a trauma recovery podcast for veterans and first responders, where he’s spoken to several vets who were offered death by their own government. Meincke explains the scandalous obstacles that veterans face in getting basic supports for treatable injuries and what needs to be done to fix a system that would rather terminate wounded soldiers than help them.
