Canada's wonderful healthcare system accused of forcing people to accept assisted suicide......

[2aguy]

When you are a cost. to the government.....there is always one way to subtract you from the equation.......and socialist governments always get to it.....

That makes this report from the Associated Press eye-popping indeed. Disability advocates in Canada have leveled accusations that Canada’s nationalized health-care system has used the legalized assisted-suicide system as a vehicle for euthanasia and cost savings:
-----
Also alarming, the number of assisted suicides had skyrocketed. Within just a span of four years, assisted suicides had gone from 1,015 in 2016 to 5,631 in 2019. Did Canada suffer a wave of terminal illnesses in that four-year span — or did its health system start selling suicide harder? Anecdotally, it very much looks like the latter.

From 1k assisted suicides 5 years ago to 5k currently.

Something is changing.

This is precisely why I do not have insurance and I do not use the Medicare for which I'm eligible. It sure can't be said I'm a parasite if I pay for my own.

It's been suggested that Aiokigahura, the "suicide forest" of Japan, is actually subtly encouraged for that use by the Japanese government.

I wish I were present with you guys due to a long held, clear headed perspective and objective view of Canadas prospects, I know I'm not alone and I don't hate my country of birth, I despise the abuses by some "playing the game" at all of Canadians expense with nary any accountability. Our healthcare is headed where I anticipated it would eventually head due to gross mismanagement. We hear the stories and read the excuses and those running cover.

Unfortunately, in a police state such as Canada that American police agencies trust and believe (for the life of me I am perplexed as to why), I'm not confident in shaking the Creepy Ones if I brought my work ethic to America. I have told my wife "I don't want to die in Ontario". Knowing what I know, depressingly, I have little faith that my life would be equally protected as an "undesirable bearer of hard truth" if I were to become gravely ill in Canada.

I've always viewed America with positivity and admiration, but the cross border police "partnering" is a really ominous omen for America that may provide caution for some looking south as a place or residence. Even during the Obama administration (I know because I reached out to them) American police were wisely weary and held a healthy doze of caution and maybe even disdain for the way "things are done over there in Canada". I'm not sure this distancing is the same today.

I do applaud your police for their stance in defense against forced vaccinations however, that was an admirable support of liberty which we didn't experience in Canada (especially with TPS, OPP etc). Does this difference in policing between our two nations extend beyond that? Is the question.

My wife is also convinced that the U.S health system is awful. I explain to the best of my ability, with my limited knowledge I must admit; how health insurance and medicaid work in the U.S. Anyone who ca enlighten me beyond my ignorance and limited knowledge I would appreciate it.

It would not be surprising. The Japanese have suicide deep in their cultural history.

It's over 10,000 now in 2021, double the number from two years eariler. We also have sites highlighting and bragging about the money we save by putting people to death before their natural expiration date.

'Put to death': Canada's too-permissive euthanasia laws a threat to the disabled, experts say

Disabled rights advocates are troubled by instances in which people have sought to be killed because they weren't getting adequate government support to live

nationalpost.com

In Canada, the two options are referred to as medical assistance in dying, though more than 99.9 per cent of such deaths are euthanasia. There were more than 10,000 deaths by euthanasia last year, an increase of about a third from the previous year.
