...Whats MAID?
Medical assistance in dying, apparently.
Aha, thanks!
If you go to a doctor in Canada about depression, they'll ask if you've heard of MAID. If you get angry, they'll say they were just testing the waters to get a better idea of your intentions.
That's all levels of fucked up, I've heard stories about it. Like the disabled athlete who was offered it because she was waiting for a stair lift..
First time I've heard of it abbreviated though, I hate how they pick these terms which sounds so innocent.
