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
HR: “I’ve never seen them act like that”. Of course you haven’t, you weren’t their target
Just a friendly reminder that toxic people don't mistreat everyone they come in contact with, so placing doubt on victims based on your experience with that person is irresponsible.
Hey @DalhousieU how can anyone take you seriously when you have one of your professors going around calling himself the Food Professor meanwhile spewing rw conspiracy theories talking points ..I understand that everyone has a right to speak however, when you have a teacher who blocks people when he doesn't agree with their point and who also is laughed by his peers that's concerning..is that the kind of person you want in your campus?? ...btw isn't your university government funded? ...anyways, time for you to get rid of him
