The Most Dangerous Job in America Claims the Life of a 29-Year-Old Kentucky Amish Man

Erik Wesner

Logging workers have the highest fatality rate of any civilian job in the US, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The profession sees 110.4 fatalities per 100,000 workers – a rate more than double that of roofing (the third-deadliest occupation) and over 33 times higher than the national average for all workers.

Amish in many communities are involved in the lumber industry – both in logging, and in operating sawmills. And sadly, news has come that another Amish logger has lost his life, this time in an incident in Crittenden County, Kentucky. ...

Northern Cheyenne Tribe Reclaims Cultural Belongings from UM

Northern Cheyenne elders and cultural leaders traveled from the southeastern Montana reservation to UM to reclaim ownership of dozens of culturally significant items, recordings and documents in the university’s collections.

Inside the University of Montana’s Maureen and Mike Mansfield Library, Donovan Taylor stretched his arms across a wooden conference table holding his phone, which was recording, up to two gray speakers. He furrowed his brow and closed his eyes as he listened to a 1968 recording of a Cheyenne love song. 

Next to him, Theresa Small, a member of the Northern Cheyenne Tribal Council, leaned closer to the speakers and cupped a hand to her right ear, trying to hear the drums and singers through the lo-fi audio.

Dr. Vernon Coleman

When I first started as a family doctor I had no appointments system. There was just me, an elderly receptionist and a consulting room. Patients arrived and were seen. It was simple. I preferred it. And so did my patients.

 No one had to wait to be seen.  Appointments systems are for hairdressers and dentists. Not doctors.

Alex Schadenberg: Canada Will Surpass 100,000 Euthanasia Deaths.

Monday, March 2, 2026:  

We recently received the 2025 fourth quarter Ontario euthanasia report from the Office of the Chief Coroner of Ontario.  

The report stated that in Ontario there were 5303 reported euthanasia deaths in 2025 which was up from 4944 in 2024, which represented a 7.2% increase. This was up from 4641 euthanasia deaths in 2023 which represented a 6.5% increase that year. 

This indicates that the growth in euthanasia deaths is increasing, not stabilizing.

The report indicated that all Ontario MAiD deaths, in 2025, were clinician administered (euthanasia). In jurisdictions that legalize both euthanasia and assisted suicide, nearly all of the deaths are euthanasia.

Health Canada released the Sixth Annual Report on Medical Assistance in Dying in Canada on November 28, 2025.

The 2024 report stated that there were 16,499 reported (MAiD) Canadian euthanasia deaths which was up by 6.9% from 15,427 in 2023.
