Pay attention to Dr. Roy. He just comes out and says it. Just right out and says they should murder undesirable children. Jesus fucking christ.

    One poor parent in the comments talking about their experiences:

    I can't overemphasize the degree to which my then 2.5 y.o. child was marked as expendable upon her ASD dx in Ontario. It was like a switch had flipped, makes me understand why some parents try to hide it if they can. It's like a target on their back. Now we see how big a target

    This is literally fascism, hiding your disabled kids from the authorities because the authorities would rather have your kid dead

      Every time an article comes out about this they talk about how terminally ill people feel pressured to take MAiD because the resources for humane palliative care just don't exist. Poor people who can't afford or just can't get access to real palliative care are getting a choice between suicide or living in agony until their body gives out. There's like several different axes on which this is fucked.
