"I am unaware or uncaring of the unique needs of people who are vulnerable and require the protection of the broader society."

The Reformists want to convert everyone so they can make god happy and get to promised land. It's a fairy tale, but not to them.

If the CPC idiots want to run against MAID, you let them sink themselves. F them. Let them be fringe extremist idiots.

In the dark, pre-MAID ages, the same rule applied - if I didn't want to self-snuff, I didn't have to. So why did judges force MAID upon us?

Would any of these 10 sources of suffering exist if not for ableism?

Because taxes are being spent on those things? Maybe not gay marriage, but the rest yes. Also abortion is murder and so is MAiD. Why our liberals so upset with war, it’s not even like they’re the ones getting shot. Just don’t join the army? See how retarded that sounds?

Please do better than making such superficial connections : concerns about when & in what circumstances physicians should end people’s lives is not a progressive CA vs MAGA US issue. Terribly superficial reaction

Literally 0 substance in this comment. No argument against the clear problem Tristan is identifying.

Abortion is not anywhere near the same as MAiD or SS marriage.

The flippant dismissal of poor disabled people with lived experience who have been bringing attention to issues with MAID for years is shameful. This isn't simply a left vs right issue.

In that same line of thinking, I guess you'll now be committed to finally shutting the fuck up about what gun models licensed Canadians own, right?" Wrong, we know you'll remain a hypocrite

MAID is set for expansion next year. The time for political debate regarding it is right now.

I'm disgusted & dismayed that othering & ableism are so deeply entrenched that the mass marketing of euthanization as being "dignified" has convinced a growing # of people that there's something compassionate about "non-culpable homicide".

I'm old enough to remember the Sue Rodriguez case 30 years ago that resulted in right to die legislation. However, over the last 3 decades shitlibs like yourself have perverted this into a means to deal with the totally inadequate supports for poor disabled people.

A white supremacist hunting black people doesn’t effect you, should we stop them?

And NO.. NOT problem solved.. So your idea is not to debate as a rational human over sensitive subjects, but to shut down any debate, that is called fascism..And it kills the democracy that so many of your kin folk claim to cherish above all else..

MAiD has made vulnerable individuals in our society more vulnerable. Are you concerned about them or do they not count?

Can't see farther than your own nose, eh? No possible future effects from those who foot the bill to save your life having a much cheaper option to end it?

If you don’t want to murder someone, then don’t. We should all have the right to kill humans that are inconvenient to us just like pregnant women and families that are sick of caring for their elderly parents. Yes. It’s hyperbole to illustrate a point. I’m not suggesting that MAIDA doesn’t actually help people, but there’s been enough stories about people being pressured into it because they are inconvenient or expensive, that there needs to be scrutiny and attention directed at MAID, to make sure it’s not being abused to eliminate undesirables or used to save the state money.

"if you're not the one being killed why do you give a shit" is just insane anti-social personality disorder revelation Pushing people into suicide and marrying two adult men who love each other aren't even on the same FUCKING PLANET.

Mr. Vaughan - as @InclusionCA and other orgs say: Track 2 MAID discriminates against people with disabilities. They should have the same protection of their lives as everyone else, have enough money to live on and a place to live, have health care and support in their community.

This idea -- that if you sign up for one [right- or left-wing] position, you automatically have to sign up for all of them -- is extraordinarily pernicious and contributing to its spread is one of the worst effects of social media on society. It's OK to not be a robot.

I agree with your logic, but it should hold true for ineffective, unproven vaccines as well.

You're kidding right? (no pun intended) Every time a "Right Wing" Person states facts to the "Left Wing" the "Left Wing" blocks the Right Wing, while name calling and providing no evidence to counter act the "Right Wing" Argument.. Stop the GD gaslighting Adam.

If you don't want to avail yourself of murder then don't! If you don't like slavery, don't buy a slave. The problem is we believe that the rights of people are being violated and so we would like to see their rights respected instead

Sounds like it can be a bit arduous to opt out though.

Why do we have any laws? If you don’t like heroin just don’t take it. Simple. Heroin should be legal.

So why can’t you do that with the freaks thinking you can be whatever gender you want? You even take it a step further and push it on children. And taxpayers are on the hook for those surgeries. Your whole argument falls apart very fast Libtard.

You missed a few words.. "If you don't wanna use MAiD, even though your going to starve to death because the LIBERAL GOVERNMENT LIED FOR FOUR YEARS about lifting you out of poverty.. THEN DON'T.. You can starve to death or freeze to death, just like before MAiD.. problem solved"

Honest political debate would be allowing the idea that individual choices affect society as a whole, and that everyone is entitled to an opinion on any of these issues :)

Equating same sex marriage with abortion is wild.

You do know that not every1 has the same equal marriage rights, right? The conversation changes when some1 on disability wants to marry. They are FORCED to choose between disability income & love. Losing their income if they choose love. They have the choice of MAiD, but not love

What a stupid and dishonest way to frame the problem

There's two types of ppl. Those who want to be left alone and those who won't leave them alone. Gay marriage? Fine but keep it to yourselves. Oh wait, now churches are pressured to host gay weddings, bakers have to bake the wedding cake Abortion? Oh wait, you have to fund it.
