Next year's expansion of the criteria for medically assisted death will allow Canadians like Lisa Pauli, whose sole underlying condition is mental illness, the choice to die in this way.

It doesn’t help when a government offical got in trouble for suggesting a veteran apply for MAID when they complained about having chronic pain.

There’s a conspiracy theory that the government has rolled out MAID as a way to lower healthcare costs by just killing people instead of treating them and stories like these add fuel to that fire.

Man I wouldn’t even be surprised at this point.
