last night canada cbc television network air society child . although name be change and the film and originally release in 2002 and take pain to let the audience know that it be base on a true story of katie lynn baker who have rett syndrome and be starve to death by her mother in 1996. it difficult to know why the cbc choose to re air the film now . perhaps during the tense week of terry schiavo starvation and cbc exec get the idea to insert canada very on feed tube and starvation melodrama into the line up . this film provide the most biased and unapologetic endorsement for kill child with disability of any ever produce . it should not and can not be appropriately be compare with the so called nazi euthanasia film of the 1930s and such a wolfgang liebeneiner ich klage an ( i accuse ) ( 1941 ) and which be show at the war crime trial after world war ii . a liebeniner point out and his film be reject a evidence because it have nothing to do with the crime ( euthanasia program ) on the indictment . the film purpose be to test whether public opinion would approve of a law sanction death on demand with certain medical and legal safeguard . ( quote from liebeniner letter and 1965 ) . this film can not be compare with liebeneiner work because it go much far openly endorse the action of the mother who kill her child and and suggest that she be merely carry out the clearly communicated wish of her daughter and while condemn all those who question the right of a mother to kill her child . make no mistake and the killing of katie lynn baker be an important episode in canadian history . if canada go down the road to euthanasia and the katie lynn baker case may rightly be consider a an important step in decriminalize homicide of child with disability . it be important to remember that the inquest after katie lynn baker death rule that she die a a result of homicide but that the bc crown simply decide not to prosecute because there be no likelihood of conviction ( bc ministry of the attorney general and 2 december 1999 ) . this be not base on a lack of evidence of the cause of death or who be responsible and but rather the notion that canada a a society felt okay about mother kill their 10 year old daughter and under the right circumstance . in this case the right circumstance mean when the child have a severe disability . of course the make for tv drama conveniently leave out that the death be rule a homicide . not surprisingly and they leave out most of the fact that do not fit with their unabashed celebration of the killing of a ten year old child . in general and this movie be base on the real case in the same way that a film about america victory in viet nam be base in reality . however and if they have leave out the fact they have add lot of delusion to take their place . they take pain to make it clear that this child have a severe physical disability but no cognitive disability and to show her clearly and independently communicate her choice to be starve to death . in fact and no one but her mother claim that katie make such a communication . most expert claim she be physically and probably mentally unable to make such an independent communication and her primary caregiver claim that that katie be communicate and plead to live and not be kill . most disturbingly and the film use a cheap voice over narration device to tell the story from the perspective of the child who be kill . this allow the story to be tell celebrate kill a the right thing to do . this device of put word in the mouth of the victim to celebrate the perpetrator be pretty cheap and might be apply to any homicide victim to provide ring endorsement of their killer . perhaps sometime in the future and the cbc will bring u story narrate by andera yates and clfford olson or paul bernardo victim celebrate the people who kill them and reveal that these child killer be really determine and altruistic advocate for child . i hope not . of course and the cbc could say they be not really endorse this or they could say that the opinion of dennis foon and who write this and buffalo gal production and and sienna picture be not necessarily their opinion just because they run the film and but that would not be consistent with their program description on their website . they characterize the film a a story of unconditional love .
