That is not a regular occurrence and is actually against the law. Doctors are not allowed to mention MAID to patients at all, only to respond should a patient bring it up to them.

You can't stop all bad actors nor can you say a law is bad because bad actors will take advantage of it.

The countries that allow euthanasia and assisted suicide vary in how they administer and regulate the practices, but Canada has several policies that set it apart from others. For example:
Belgian doctors are advised to avoid mentioning euthanasia to patients since it could be misinterpreted as medical advice. The Australian state of Victoria forbids doctors from raising euthanasia with patients. There are no such restrictions in Canada. The association of Canadian health professionals who provide euthanasia tells physicians and nurses to inform patients if they might qualify to be killed, as one of their possible clinical care options.
