According to the Summary Statistics provided by Canada at THIS LINK, Notably Tables 2A and 2D.

473 were simultaneously on a wait list in December 2023 and either 7 or 8 of them died awaiting transplant (or maybe gave up voluntarily).

So I'm not saying it's murder or anything, just that in order to prolong your selfish existence you're directly responsible for the death of another. You're an adjacent-murderer.

But it's impossible to know how many livers are or are not available at any given time, so absolutely a little morally ambiguous.
