## Captured text
The browser-visible post text is saved as `facebook-post-text.txt`. The post begins “Never say MAiD” and describes Kathleen Walker as a former psychologist, lawyer and retired anti-MAID activist.

## Capture notes
- Facebook public/browser view exposed the post text behind a login modal.
- The OpenGraph image was generic Rebel News branding, not a Kathleen Walker / MAID-specific image.
- PBC is using a neutral original SVG rather than the Rebel News branding image as the article graphic.
- Public search snippets link the same text to `facebook.com/KHWalker4U` and identify her public profile as Kathleen Walker / KHWalker4U.

## Background limits
Public-source checks support a Kathleen H. Walker / Maple Ridge lawyer profile and self-described/legal-role snippets. The “former psychologist” wording is treated as self-described / Facebook-about snippet rather than independently verified licensing history.

## Official anchors
- Health Canada MAID overview: eligibility requires being at least 18, mentally competent, a voluntary request and no outside pressure.
- Health Canada 2024 annual report: 16,499 MAID provisions in 2024; 76,475 from legalization through 2024; 5.1% of Canadian deaths in 2024.
- Supreme Court of Canada, Carter v. Canada, 2015 SCC 5.
- Department of Justice background on Bill C-7.

## Editorial label
This is a MAID source-profile and claim-check. It documents a public activist voice while separating official statistics and legal history from unproven claims such as genocide, child eligibility, organ-harvesting motive, or platform bans at government request.
