🧵This is the letter the UN Special Rapporteur on the rights of persons with disabilities sent Canada on February 3, 2021, voicing concerns on #BillC7, the expansion of MAID access. It can be found here as well. spcommreports.ohchr.org/TMRe…

I will forever stand by my words that MAiD is compassion for some ppl, while it's femicide & a lack of choice for others who the government legislates into poverty until the isolation, pain & fear become unbearable. MAiD without dignity in living is not compassion.
They raped boys and girls, waged genocide against Indigenous peoples, used arbitrary arrest, torture and executions and were anti-Semitic. And yet they righteously say aiding someone to peacefully die at the certain end of life is "not normal". ctvnews.ca/world/article/pop…

Government, social & familial disparities tell the elderly, the disabled & the sick that they are burdens. Affordable rent? Not a choice. Affordable food? Not a choice. Our governments doesn't want disabled ppl to survive while ppl call MAiD the ultimate compassion.
Naw, bitch, you got it backwards. MAID doesn’t tell anyone anything. It doesn’t make up someone’s mind for them, it doesn’t pressure, intimidate or shame. What it does though is give people options, a choice, some peace & comfort. You’re confusing MAID with organized religion.

This person is arguing that it does not matter if a person agrees to MAiD bc they are lonely provided that person is disabled. What matters is that if a non-disabled person suffers loneliness to same degree they wouldn't qualify for MAiD. So who is what matters not why.

And show me one case … just one … where the MAiD program was used to end someone’s life exclusively because they were lonely and/or isolated. It just doesn’t happen.

It doesn't...
WSIB is eliminating more than 600 jobs leaving just four staff assigned to Niagara. Today, I asked the Labour Minister a simple question: How does laying off workers and cutting the services injured workers depend on “Protect Ontario”?

I know of some opponents of MAiD who have agreed to debate when asked but the proponents have always declined.
I am so frustrated by this. Our audience desperately wants debates on Canadas most pressing issues. Yet, I can’t get participants. I’ve tried to organize good faith, Nuanced Debates on: - Housing - The Economy - MAID - Taxes Yet again and again, I hear from professors, experts, and commentators that their side is right - and the other side is evil, bad intentioned and not worthy of debate. I thought once we did the first, people would see that we’re not looking for a food fight we’re looking for honest disagreements. I just want to recognize @MarkJaccard and @ExnerPirot for coming on and having the conversation. It takes courage to have your ideas challenged - and I wish more would follow in their footsteps.

"State of decline" doesn't necessarily have to mean degenerative.

The first stage is built on such deep denial about history and what we absolutely know about our society, its institutions and systems function, the bias built into core beliefs and how it all shows up in violence, abuse of power, & our own feelings towards others & ourselves.
Stages of MAID denial: 1. "That can't be happening; you're lying!" 2. "Okay, it happened once but that's just an ANECDOTE!" 3. "Even if [egregious cases and shocking abuses] happen all the time, I will overlook them because I want MAID for myself."

At the same time, MAID assessments are available on average in two days time in Ontario. What social justice respecting society prioritizes access to MAID over proper placement and support for elderly?

FYI: we have a paper where we contrast how Ontario statute allows elderly in need of care in Ontario to be moved as furniture out of hospital bed to LTC homes away from their families, at penalty of 400$/day. No choice where. Absence of family support is serious risk factor

I am baffled how Canadians are ill-informed about MAID law and its practice. It is hard to ignore that some people are getting MAID who if properly supported would continue to live. While we can discuss how serious that is, the denial of its existence troubles me

Hat in hand for more money for private options and mobcare. Carney won't mind dishing it out, he can just hide it somewhere so the real budget numbers don't startle the sheep.

Chronic illness is not terminal illness. There is no terminal illness requirement in Canada's MAID law . No requirement under track 1, definitely nothing close to it for track 2. Canadian MAID providers publicly expressed concern about people getting MAID w treatable cancers.

It's the arrogance that gets me. These assholes are so loudly and confidently showing off their profound ignorance of MAID laws and their shitlib audience laps it up and throws it back up all over the place.
Replying to @TrudoLemmens
Exactly. This is entirely about terminal illness. There isn’t a person in the country who is experiencing isolation, homelessness or loneliness who can walk off the street and request to end their life. That’s NOT how MAID works.

Fact check: The Canadian MAID regime is currently for medical conditions including diseases, disabilities or illnesses. To pretend it's limited to solely "incurable diseases" ignores it is approved for medical conditions that are not terminal. 1/ canada.ca/en/health-canada/s…
Is it "normal" to force a person with an incurable disease to suffer for months or years? I think not.

Hanania is the only person I've ever seen shift from the alt-right to the progressive left because the alt-right simply wasn't committed enough to a culture of eugenicist death.
