As an expansion on a post on this topic I had on the 9th. Sick in Canada? Just Kill Yourself | Frontpage Mag
How a country's totalitarian odyssey evolved into a dystopian hellscape.
Canada has fallen so far.
Canada’s sordid journey into assisted suicide began in 2016, when the country legalized medical assistance in dying for terminally ill residents. By 2022, the law broadened to include those with debilitating disabilities or pain, while not defining what that meant.
Aside from the wheelchair-bound veteran featured in my previous post about Canada, this article covers a few more examples. Let's look at one.
Alan Nichols, a 61-year-old Canadian man, killed himself assisted by medical staff after just a month waiting period.
His “debilitating disability or pain?” Hearing loss.
One company even "celebrated" Medical Assistance in Dying as part of an advertising campaign. Not sure how getting your customers to kill themselves is good for profits, but the future is stupid in so many ways.
What does suicide have to do with fashion? Who the hell knows! But there’s something extremely dystopic about the fact assisted suicide has become so normalized in Canada that a brand would use it in its advertising.
Civilization was nice while it lasted. (Hat tip to J.J. Sefton at Ace of Spades HQ)
