Scary to hear this shit tbh. This sort of thinking is fundamentally wrong. Nobody is telling people to die, suggesting they should die, etc. etc. It is allowing people who are of sound mind and judgement to decide for themselves if their medical prognosis and what the ongoing care of that would look like is something they want to do. Anyone is free to deny treatment. You can get a cancer diagnosis and refuse treatment and die. That is legal anywhere in Canada. You can have liver failure and continue to drink until it kills you. Unless the law has determined you are not capable of making decisions for yourself, that is your right. Ultimately what MAID is looking to do is to ensure that people are not suffering needlessly. Would you tell someone who has terminal cancer that they have to struggle through another 6-8 months of taxing treatment and further pain and suffering, rather than allowing them the opportunity to simply fall asleep and not wake up? --- https://i.imgur.com/GWG5c3r.gif <cite>Jeff_AKA_Snoopy posted [p:976907984] in Canada con...
