I've become a big fan of Canada in seeing how (relatively) little controversy euthanasia seems to arouse in that country despite the entire right-wing Anglosphere losing its mind over it.
Canadians have the most up close experience with MAID. They know that it is a humane, rational policy that provides people in difficult situations a humane way to die with dignity.
Rightists sitting in America and the UK getting their information about MAID from the Daily Mail and the New York Post are convinced that Canada is eliminating every twenty year old who comes in with a cough.
But Canada knows what it is doing is right. All the data and facts are on their side. The other side has sensationalist anecdotes that fall apart under scrutiny, and paranoid conspiracy theories about Canada being the Fourth Reich and eliminating the weak and vulnerable for pleasure and profit.
On that basis, they want government to force people to be indefinitely tortured. It's hard to think of many positions more disgusting than that.
I'm proud of you, Canada. You are showing humanity the way forward. 🇨🇦https://t.co/SKyKybPkgV
Don't believe the propaganda on MAID.
In 2021, the average recipient was 76.3 years old. Almost two-thirds had cancer, 19% had cardiovascular conditions, 12% had neurological conditions and 8% had organ failure.
This is a humane, rational program that is working about as well as any government program can possibly work.
People hate it for religious reasons, and want to force others to suffer indefinitely for no good reason.
Opposition to MAID is evil. https://t.co/SKyKybPkgV
Don’t blame the ref, habibi. We all know your internals are just as bad, which is why you flip-flopped on this insane war.
Maybe you should have just showed up to the debate, coward.
