So... they just stand in their own bedroom and kill themselves?

Your statement is beyond absurd. There is an entire government bureaucracy and medical process involved in killing the person with lots of people with lots of agency.

What experience do you have with MAID?

Quite a bit. Why, are you asking for advice as to whether or not you should kill yourself? I have an opinion!  :P

It begins with 3 separate interviews with 3 different doctors to determine not only your physical health but your state of mind.

Utterly irrelevant. That doesn't address what I raised in the slightest

And even on the day it happens, the doctor who comes to administer it says, "You can change your mind. Do you want us to proceed?"

Sure but by that point you feel committed.

Your whole point seems to be that humans are robots and emotions aren't really a thing

I absolutely assure you that you're wrong.

So you're a lying sack of shit that has no idea what he's talking about and is happy to see people die as long as It feeds your echo chamber.

Choosing maid is more of an emotional decision than a medical decision. Personally I believe in the concept, I put my dog down when he was suffering and there was no chance of recovery, why wouldn't I do the same for myself. But I fully recognize that it is entirely possible for people to be negatively influenced to proceed with it.  

IF you' pretend that can't happen then you're the kind of scum who'd offer maid to a vet instead of paying for his treatment.  That's exactly the kind of person you would be.  And i'm not going anywhere you ignorant piece of shit.

Unfortunately, these are the kind of outrageous lies fed to the American people by the right-wing media bubble –

In the video below, this is what Tucker Carlson has to say about Canada:

“Canada is not even a country anymore … government is murdering tens of thousands of citizens every year, they’re almost all white … under the MAIDs program, they’re harvesting the organs of the Canadians they kill … the government is killing you, not because you have ALS, but because you can’t pay your rent … extending it to children, and then harvesting the organs and the blood … they are a way bigger threat to the US than Venezuela … I would be open to invading and occupying Canada on human rights grounds … one of the darkest countries in the world.”

No. Just the opposite.

Well that's not what you claimed. You claim that these decisions are being made without any external influence by people who are mentally healthy and capable of making these decisions rationally and that others can't influence them

I can certainly understand why your backtracking now.

At the end of the day while there is a perfectly valid reason for maid and it should be available, the fact is that it is open a little to abuse as things stand currently

No you’re not allowed to commit suicide. That’s destruction of US government property 51ster.

It was established, though that Carlson lied right?

The passage from journalism to entertainment is the source of our problems right now IMO.

I'm sure you consider yourself property of the united states, I'm sure you think trump owns you. We don't have that problem :) 

Be sure to make certain your caller isn't on too tight before bedtime, you wouldn't want chafing :P

Sigh.  You can't read can you,

In your twisted mind it doesn't matter either way?

This is what @Barquentine Does when he realizes he's wrong but he doesn't want to admit it. I own this like one post after the post he's referring to but he knows he's wrong about all of the arguments I made and that you've made and he's very angry about it so he's trying to pretend there's some sort of controversy here that he can argue which doesn't exist.

This forum would be a hell of a lot more fun if there were at least a handful of left-wing people who could come here and make honest discussion and arguments rather than rely on this kind of nonsense

Even if it was 20%, so what? 

Would these clowns prefer MAID deaths to be lower, but cancer and other deaths where the person died in agony to be higher?  
 

These rightwing doofuses want to see people suffer.  It’s weird.

They had a right to die with dignity.  Good for them for being brave enough to choose the way they left the world.

And you still dishonestly insist that those getting MAID are all terminally ill with some illness that is causing them some kind of pain...

Genuine question: do you want MAID to be reformed or abolished?

I don't think maid should be abolished. I do absolutely believe in the right of individuals to end their life with dignity.

As to reform i have some genuine concerns about the system, i'm not really sure what reforms would be effective or not.  I'm not sure i'm fully versed in the subject to speak with authority on it, it would take some research and i've only read some stories. 

I would say i'm open to reforms and as mentioned i have real concerns that i think need to be addressed.

Do you find talk of an invasion entertaining? Just a joke, right?

Tucker's oxygen is controversy - if it doesn't exist he invents it. 

It has made him a millionaire. 

As entertaining as I find him  (and I  suspect a lot feel the same) he is a light weight. 

Enjoy.

The idea of Canada is a joke. Canada is a retarded non government organization. Like why the hell are all rights equal in Canada’s constitution??? Freedom of speech is certainly not equal to the legal theft you call equalization payment.
