Why is Life so Cheap in Canada?

Back in 2019 I wrote an article on this theme. I was concerned that a depressed man was allowed to apply for a medically assisted death (euthanasia), even though he was not terminally ill. This request was accepted despite opposition from his family.

It seems that the situation is getting worse. Canada is now arguably the global capital of euthanasia, because of its medical assistance in dying programme (MAID).

There has been a recent case of a disabled 54-year-old man, Amir Farsoud, who has been approved for MAID by his doctor. He applied for MAID because is about to be made homeless and has no money. Many people have since taken to Twitter to accuse Canada of quite literally killing off poor people.

The expansion of the MAID programme has been described as ‘seemingly unstoppable’.

Can any Canadians out there please do what you can to stop this outrage.

For more details, please see this British article.
