it seems to me that if were having trouble rolling out healthcare then we should focus on improving healthcare, not introducing MAiD. MAiD is not an alternative to proper mental healthcare, but I guess that’s what you’re saying?

I didn't justify the use of MAiD. I just explained why it's being used by poor people.

[–] ageedizzle@piefed.ca 2 points 1 day ago

Yeah. I actually think your comment was very insightful, thank you

Canada has always had a pathetic budget to fund biomedical research, because government assumed the US would pay the bills and we just buy the drugs.

Now, the US budget is zero, and we are paying hundreds of billions for drugs we should be making locally. This amplified under Trudeau and Carney, because CDN voters don't care. Carbon tax was the priority.
