Of course! The real poor make the government look bad and drain resources that could be used for marxist indoctrination. The criminals destroy social cohesion and require an increase in the power and reach of government which is the ultimate goal. And, as a bonus, any laws that are meant to deal with criminality can be selectively enforced to justify harming the enemies of the revolution.

I was joking about this yesterday, as a hilariously unlikely idea; I had no idea we're actually doing this.

Here's some context: a group of public health bureaucrats and their tame politicians just got approval to build a "permanent supportive housing" project in the middle of my densly populated neighborhood (illegally consuming greenspace in the process).

They got several million dollars from the federal and provincial government to do so. According to the funding proposal that the mayor leaked, they're going to setup a "safe supply program", where adicts will be supplied with clean needles and drugs at the taxpayers expense.

So this doesn't really surprise me; they've got several plans to subtly kill people while making it look like their own choice (like privatising all retirement homes and creating food shortages by destroying crops under flimsy pretexts).

But, my God, I always grew up with the myth of the "dummy" Americans doing all sorts of crazy things that we "civilized" Canadians were far to clever to fall for. I have so many relatives, university educated professionals, who go along with this stuff and I realize that no, we're just cowards who will wait until the Americans save us from ourselves, time and again and all the hulabaloo over "muh freedoms" is not just rednecks being loud, it's a fundamental skill that we lack.

It's quite a bit of cognitive dissonance to have to overcome.

Even though the large portion of retarded leftist Canadians constantly shit on us Americans, I still genuinely feel for all of the decent people suffering under Trudeau's regime.

What he did to the truckers can never be forgotten.

Trudeau is a disgusting tyrant and he has shown he is just like his real father, Fidel Castro.

It's really reinforced my desire for a northern border wall. The Canadian government is an enemy to the America people as far as I'm concerned.

Evil geniuses. If you don't support the uniparty and their plans they'll freeze accounts and confiscate your assets.

Now you're officially "too poor to continue living with dignity". A uniparty euthanasia van will be dispatched.

Insert the word "evil" instead of "poor" and we are getting somewhere, Justin.

They seem to be talking about people who can't afford end-of-life care. So, I'm guessing that the idea that these people will be screaming 'I don't want to die!' as they're strapped down and given lethal injections is, I'm guessing, false.

The mention of dementia tells me they're looking at people who are more or less mindless bodies with no current medical hope of recovery.

At least, I hope that's what they're talking about.

"Help, I don't want to die!" claimed the patient who was clearly suffering from dementia. We're doing the right thing by respecting his true wish to die that he can't espouse properly due to the dementia we are in charge of diagnosing.

"Help, I don't want to die!" claimed the patient who was clearly suffering from dementia.

More like 'MNNGGH, HMMNNNH MMNEMMM!', screamed the patient as he was being moved from one room to the next, having no idea that he was lying in pile of his own shit and piss and had been for the last two days.

'FFGGHHGNNNHH!!!!' He screamed, thrashing and swinging his fists at his wife as she attempted to bathe him. He had no idea who she was. As far as he was concerned, he had never seen her before in his life, and she had just stepped into his bedroom.

It's not so much a matter of believing them and more a matter of knowing how utterly grim palliative care can be.

Just because the government lies does not mean every outlandish claim is true.

You gotta set precedent somewhere. Lenin didn't show up day-1 of his revolution and say "okay, time to starve all the farmers to death because I enjoy lethal irony.", you set precedent with things few people would argue against.

Actually, he did. It was called War Communism. After the civil war ended, he had to relent, and peasants acquired some economic and personal freedom until collectivization.

Can’t have a homeless problem when the punishment for being homeless is death

Canada doesn't really have that much of a homeless problem anyways: It clears up every winter. Most major cities have a division or at least a daily sweep team for needing to clean up frozen-to-death homeless people.

So anyone who tries to ply this kind of law with that kind of logic has clearly never been in Canada for a year before.

My comment was meant more in the spirit of Venezuela cutting down on starvation death by making it illegal to mark starvation as a cause of death on death certificates.

Step 1: canada lets the virtue firms steal all your money, with low wages, then frivolous suits, and then the gov steals the rest via extra 'taxation', declares "peaceful truckers" too poor to continue living

Step 2: trudeau is literally northern hitler, if libs had morals. they'll keep calling the far right nazis instead of someone openly practicing eugenics.

I was gonna say "No they don't" since MAID has been historically very hard to use even for total bodily failure, but then I checked the conditions on health Canada's site and lo' and behold :

"have a serious illness, disease or disability (excluding a mental illness until March 17, 2023)"

March 17th 2023 uh. Mental Illness.

The Spectator article

A CTV article about one of the subjects

I think it's misleading to say they are euthanising the poor if the root problem is a disability or mental illness that they are too poor to mitigate.

Canada has universal healthcare system, which means that you can get free treatment for any disability or mental illness.
