I don't desire to make a world with "less suffering"
I hate bigotry and discrimination
I think it makes us worse people; who are we to judge whether the suffering of another is a good reason to end their life
Some of the most important lessons I have learned are through suffering
I assume Eric here is too insulated from the reality of suffering to understand
Efforts to eliminate suffering are not efforts to improve society, inherently
Eric, if you are going to embrace this "solution" with infants there's no logical reason you shouldn't extend this "killing others to prevent suffering" to adults
You don't even recognize the extent to which you are appealing to Eugenics, I suspect
"The most comprehensive survey of psychiatrists on the topic to date showed most psychiatrists who responded oppose euthanasia for sole mental illness"
"However, many(psychiatrists) are also reluctant to speak out since they fear potential backlash ... " mileniostadium.com/temas-de-capa/…
"Remember that the public has been told MAiD is supposed to be for “irremediable” medical conditions (i.e. when we can predict the condition will not improve). In terms of science and evidence, it is clear that there is no science or evidence that mental illness can be predicted"
If you wanted to wait for the election now you have the worst of both worlds; pissed everyone off both infection advocates and everyone who wasn't gaslighted into giving up
Are you saying that vaccinations aren't enough to control the spread of covid?
You mean to tell me we've just given it 2 years and millions of infections to evolve into something we are less able to control?

Proposed "Mental Health" Pipeline
1: You struggle with ideations
2: You attempt and are detained against your will
3: After 6 months of isolation from society in custody you are offered a "mercy death"
Does that sound like autonomy?

Proposed "Criminal Justice" Pipeline
1: Commit a crime that leads to more than 6 months imprisonment
2: Offered access to a "mercy death" if you consent
What differences does this proposed "solution" have from the death penalty? What similarities?
Reminder: The mental illness clause was added in the supreme court
The people who added this to the legislation aren't elected and are not directly accountable to the electorate
Jocelyn here is invested in the #MAID regime, a sunken cost
I'm not sure whether they support access for mental illness
I don't expect them to raise concerns about it if they have some privately held beliefs against some access; they have a sunken cost in supporting #MAID
I don't suspect Jocelyn here is misleading us on purpose
I believe their Faith in the #MAID regime gives them reasons to jump to assumptions about accessibility without looking at the data that would confirm/deny the claim
Their following claim is just as bereft of citation
Their claim to the charter is not valid, in fact the discrimination inherit of only allowing access to Disabled people to #BillC7 pointed out by the UN is more likely to be a violation of the charter
