A woman moved to the United States after doctors in Canada gave her a death sentence — and even advised her on how to carry it out.

Kristin Logan appeared on Fox News’ The Ingraham Angle on Monday, where she shared her “disturbing” experience with Canada’s health-care system.

‘Go and kill myself’

Logan revealed that she was waiting for an appointment with a specialist before literature about medical assistance in dying (MAID) was sent her way.

“I hadn’t even seen an oncologist yet before I got that pamphlet,” she told host Laura Ingraham.

“It took nine months to even get to a place where I was diagnosed,” Logan recounted, explaining that she was told in an emergency room that she had Stage 4 metastatic cancer, which spreads from where it first started to distant parts of the body through the blood or lymphatic system.

In Logan’s case, she had first been diagnosed with Stage 4 ovarian cancer.

“As I’m waiting for even the first call from the oncology team, I get this pamphlet in the mail basically telling me that I can go and kill myself,” she recounted to Ingraham.

“It was very disturbing. At that point you realize what a dystopian situation it is because nobody’s going to tell you how long you’re going to be waiting for treatment,” she continued, noting that doctors told her she was actually “fast-tracked,” which Logan found “ridiculous.”

Things are looking up

Logan, who has American citizenship, left Canada for good last year, but she first tried to return to the U.S. three years ago when, at the time, she was “dying.”

Her prognosis now is “looking pretty decent,” Logan revealed.

“I’m in a much better position for having [left Canada],” she continued, noting the “outstanding” medical care she has received in the U.S. since.

“And I’m still here when they told me three years ago that I wouldn’t make it two years.”

Poilievre weighs in on MAID

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre took to X to share the story of an elderly Ontario woman who was allegedly euthanized under MAID without her consent.

“The family of an 83-year-old grandmother battling cancer says she was given MAID against her will,” Poilievre wrote on a post Tuesday morning.

Brigitte Kranendonk insisted to the Daily Mail that her grandmother Brigitte Stegemann “did not consent” to the procedure.

But Stegemann died anyway, with her hands clasped together in prayer and covered in blood after a nurse botched the first attempt at connecting the IV, according to the outlet.

Kranendonk has contacted the province’s chief coroner’s office, the patient ombudsman and Belleville Police to launch an investigation into whether the July 10 procedure that took place at The Pearl, a long-term care home in Cannifton, Ont., was legal.

A spokesman for the Belleville Police Service said in a statement: “This incident is currently open and under investigation with our Criminal Investigations Division. We are unable to provide any additional information at this time.”

“She was a vulnerable human being, and they saw an opportunity,” Kranendonk alleged, adding that she believed the MAID practitioners were “inappropriately ideologically motivated,” according to the Mail.

“‘No one had ever done MAID at this residential home before. This was their very first MAiD procedure,” she claimed. “So I don’t know if they just dropped the ball, because they didn’t know what they were doing.”

Poilievre vowed to bring more attention to Stegemann’s family’s experience.

“This is disgusting. We have a sworn duty to protect the most vulnerable,” he continued on X.

“This story demands action,” he added. “The Liberal government must strengthen and enforce safeguards to protect vulnerable Canadians from pressure and abuse.
