The real problem is the disability designation. At least half the people on it are like the people in handicap parking. They are there because doctors give them the designation out of sympathy and not genuine need.
My understanding is that an inmate in Ontario costs taxpayers around $150,000 per year. Someone on disability in Ontario gets $15,000 a year. So in Ontario a disabled person is worth 1/10th of 1 inmate. Just think about that for a moment.
Let's be very clear. The spin doctor's let you believe it costs that much to house an inmate. It doesn't. That costing average is actually fancy government accounting whereby the guards are some of the country's highest paid employees. Further, I challenge you to sit in a court room. The judge may hear 2 cases in a day, the rest of the time postpone cases repeatedly. It's ludicrous and churning money for the judiciary. The waste of money on bureaucracy is rampant. Inmates are absolutely gouged and leave prison worse off and with nothing to show for the time and money wasted. All this to say that Canada has a big problem of funneling money to cronies and fat cats while its most vulnerable people starve. Remember the Brian Mulroney scandal when he stated that he needed the illicit funds because he had a lifestyle to maintain? Yeah, that's where the money goes. Most people in prison aren't even truly criminals, I would say 85% are actually just traumatized poor people and minorities. They fell on bad times and made poor choices due to the very lack of supports we are discussing! We can't let political talking points distract us! The powers that be take care of corporate interest and the upper middle class and higher that feed those systems. The rest of us are drowning and it's about time we get a life raft!
@@darrencraig9263 I wish it were true, but the people in prison are highly neglected. You are not connecting the money dots as I've laid them out for you. The money spent is spent on the prison system itself, not the inmates. They work up to 3 jobs for a max per diem of $5 per day, regardless. They MAY get life-saving treatments, yes, if the doctor is compassionate. However the daily care is NOT of your choosing, the jaded nursing staff is inept and most of your care is left to the other inmates who are not prepared or trained in anyway. The prescriptions filled are only the ones that can be served by a nurse (for their profit) and you may be signed up to be used as a lab rat to trial new drugs. If you need stronger meds or you die from the cocktail they conjured up, oh well. MANY people die in prison because simple things are neglected, you are usually ignored if you cry out for help. If you're lucky a real nurse who committed a crime is in your bunk. I'm dead serious. 😑 The dentist in provincial prison in Québec is actually a veterinarian. 😳 Let that sink in...
Well, yeah, jailing people is expensive. You're better off giving someone 50000 a year so they don't fall into criminality than waiting for them to commit a crime and then having to keep them in jail for 150000 a year. Unfortunately most politicians don't understand numbers and just want to look "tough on crime".
Sorry but even prisoners deserve life. You gonna tell someone who is in there because they robbed a place because they were trying to SURVIVE CAPITALISM that they are worthless? Or someone in there for a parking ticket that they are worthless. Cut this genocial sentiment out fam. It's disgusting
Then try moving to the US and see how much worse it is in the "greatest country in the world". As a person in a wheelchair I am fortune to live in NDP run BC.
@@jamieking8011 Government only cares about corporations and imports 450k people a year to ensure corporate profits stay high while your quality of life drops.
I've been almost deaf for my entire life. The government has never even given me disability. I've been forced to try and work, but have failed my entire life because of my disability.
I need to see more comments like this from you on other videos as well, would you be able to advocate for disabled Canadians actually or are you just stoking an anti-ubi argument? So far it's the latter.
I agree but I think everyone should have a guranteed income of $2000/month. It doesn't have to be a UBI as that would cost wayy to much but it could be a income floor that phases out as your income grows.
@@shauncameron8390 Corporate profits are at a 50 year high. The price per barrel of oil after the 2008 crash is about the same as now but the price at the pump is double what it was then. Oil is cheaper to produce now than it was then. Follow the money dude...it's not hard. CEO pay is out of control (In what 73' it was 24x the standard salary and now it's 300x ish?). Close corporate tax loopholes, seizure of off shore accounts in arrears going back 40 years...we JUST did it to Russian oligarchs...treat our domestic oligarchs exactly the same. Go back to the corporate tax brackets of the 50's...that's the kind of conservatism I'm behind. Profit motive drove off all the manufacturing jobs to exploitable labour markets and propagandized people to believe that was for our good. Unscrupulous and amoral mentality mixed with greed causes most of our suffering. Bernie Madoff was not an anomaly but the standard operating procedure of our monetary systems. We have more than enough resources to fix these problems...we have actual solutions. Greed prevents them from being realized. Where do you want to start? Have you even looked at any of how the mechanics of this world operate? I'm not trying to put you on the spot but you offered zero information. There are legitimate and obvious holes in our system that are not being addressed. Planned obsolescence is an affront to everything humanity should stand for...as is right to repair. Copyright laws and most of our legal system in general is setup to protect the wealthy and exploit the vulnerable. This was just in a brief 30 seconds of "where would the money come from?" that I could readily recall without actually digging into any white papers. I'd love to discuss this but you are simply firing from the hip without any additional information it seems. Dunno I'm just a peon in this system so what do I know?
I receive disability in BC. If I didn't live with family I would be dead or homeless. I wouldn't wish this life on anyone. It's sickening how the government would rather us die then give us enough to live a healthy life.
I am on disability in BC and I am blessed to be working parttime. Still, its not enough when rents are high here. What scares me the most is how easy to get assisted euthanasia.
I have been on disability in BC for 13 years until recently retiring. I didn't have the help of family but figured out how to survive. They purchase me a new power wheelchair when I needed it. They purchased my teeth and hearing aids, and all medical aids/supplies. However, many people and doctors are using the "disability" designation to get a larger welfare cheque. This also puts people with serious mobility or medical issues in long lines for wheelchair accessible housing and especially handicap parking.
@@graceb4732 The problem isn't so much the government as it is the disability designation. I have been on disability in BC for 13 years. They purchase my power wheelchairs and teeth and hearing aids and all medical aids/supplies. The biggest problem is the disability subsidized housing is like handicap parking? It's full of people who really aren't either. This is a non-issue because you can lay in bed and take an overdose of pills if you want to die.
I am on Ontario Disability after a work place accident years ago. Workers Compensation closed my file after found a job but I was unable to sustain it. Ontario disability won't cover physiotherapy to help me with the chronic pain and weakness I have. It's not part of the program. Can you believe there are no benefits to provide physical therapy to people with physical disabilities? Our system only values people who can earn money for the rich. If you are old or disabled you have no value. It's harsh, but it's true. That is capitalism.
I would argue that EVERY system in history has valued people that contribute the most. How else do you form a system? After all, the people that produce and contribute more than they consume are in effect, carrying the weight of those that do not, or can not.
There should honestly be a guranteed income so no one has to live below the poverty line and disabled people should also have ODSP to cover medical costs but ideally the guranteed income would be enough ($2000/month) that ODSP wouldn't have to pay out any funds.
BC is much better but the biggest problem is doctors submitting patients to the disability programs and padding the reasons. Look at handicap parking and disability housing. 70% are not needing either.
Not every one who employs you is rich first if all. And If you were living in a state socialist society, you would only be valued by how much you could do labor for the whole. Stalin would have shot you because you would have been useless to the whole
Can you explain to me what is the answer. The disabled can not be living on the street. Obviously it would be better to end it peacefully. Healthy people can't even begin to understand.
I am 21, disabled, I am about to be homeless soon, as I cannot find a place and BC housing wait is 2-5 years. I am scared for my future, being disabled has made it nearly impossible to live as it limits what you can do in so many ways legally. I don’t have family who can support me. Edit- 8 months later, doing so much better. Found housing, worked my a** off to get it and keep it. Got part-time work and am working super hard at achieving all my goals and dreams! :) I figured it out, it was brutal, but I did it yee haw! C: Just gotta put the brains and work in

@@jent9076 If you where not able to pay your rent than you are usually evicted even if you come into the position again to pay that rent. He as well says he is disabled. So he now has the 4 stresses now of having no money, having no home soon, having a disability and having to find work. People are not machines. At some point stress can become so poisonous that you can't think anymore, even to a person who is not disabled.
First you're only 21 years old. That's very very young and alot of good things can happen to you if you tried. Second what disability do you have? Three, don't be afraid of the future. Focus yourself, on improving yourself so that you can be a service to those close to you; present or future. This applies even if you don't have a family, don't let the ghost of those who got it worse than you yet succeeded, judge you for your cowardice.

The story not being told is the deliberate refusal of applications for basic treatment and services by government to their citizens. Then denying appeals without just cause. Supported by their politically appointed Officers of Parliament. A wilful way by those in power to force Canadians into these regrettable circumstances.

actually the current poverty is created by the Canadian Government at the Federal and Provincial levels. Medically assisted death is the current option for the poverty stricken citizens to alleviate the burden of supporting them by the government through taxation. Doctors were eliminated in Canada through governmental restrictions, this will open the doors for creating a General Euthanasia Act being passed by Parliament. As the citizens are unable to access medical care for chronic diseases due to age or ability to pay for medication or treatments, expect to see government making it mandatory to report for medically assisted death by order of the government.
Actually, the Canadian government is offering them a free ride off this poverty stricken planet and into the next life. All they have to do is sign up for medically assisted death sponsored by the Canadian Government or any government of the world (ie., Sweden)

They don't even care about autistic children digressing because their parts can't afford to put them into the programs and the government will lie to all of our faces and say the new autism "program" is doing great things... doug ford very much disapproved if a house on his street housing adults with autism.

I have been on CPP Disability for many years. I receive $799.00 per month. Thankfully my husband is still working and we are surviving. If anything happens to him, I wouldn't be able to live. I often think about what I would do if anything happened to him. I would be alone, unable to care for myself and destitute. At that point, my death would be a blessing. I pray that I die first. Canada is an amazing country and assisted suicide for those at the end of life who are living in agony deserve a humane option. We wouldn't let an animal suffer and not euthanize it. However, when the government offers to kill you because the services you need to help you aren't there, compounded by one's inability to pay for them privately, offers suicide as a solution, something is terribly, terribly wrong.
People that abuse disability should be a shamed for their laziness. But This is Like the Nazi Gas Chambers, but more humane I guess. Its absolutely disgusting.

@rogerfreeman6787 Bruh, that’s a tu quoque fallacy. What your doing is equivalent to someone pointing out the horrors of Holocaust and someone else replying “but all nations kill people.” While technically true that doesn’t make it any less right and ignores the specificity of the evil being discussed.
Another thing, where are these people's families? Help your own. Stop discarding family members when they get sick and poor. We’ve got family members living in large homes and a sister or brother is living on the streets. It disgusts me. Someone is gorging on a big juicy steak while their mother or father is living in a run-down room with no money for food. Whoever leaves a blood relative to die is morally bankrupt. Take care of your family and extended family. This is the centre of the problem. People not helping each other.
You have only the social safety net to thank for that. People ceded family care to the government and private institutions in favor of career and lifestyle.
A lot of people, like myself, come from abusive families who never cared about us as children, who hated us and tried to end it. I'm lucky I made it out alive and I don't care if my "mother" rots on the street.
I completely agree. Spending money on wokeness is beyond ridiculous. One thing people need to realize is if you're not paying taxes the government doesn't care about you. That is unfortunate, but it's the truth.

My friend has a solution....have a protest of 1000 topless 80+ year old women -- they won't want to see it again and they may smarten up!!!!
The international press has taken note of this policy in Canada, and frowns on it with disapproval. I've seen articles on the Associated Press , the BBC , and the Daily Beast web sites.

AND NOW MANY CHOOSE FENTYNAL!! or 2 Again: teenage disobedience is 1 marker.. already having exposure to ALCOHOL/WEED/PARTYS.. ^^this type of teen (already disobedient but hidibg it from parents) breaks theur ankle while out with friends, Doctor PRESCRIBES a 7 DAY AMOUNT (yes drs dont actually rx a plethora of pills for ACUTE INJURIES!!).. The TEEN takes their meds but does not follow drs inatructionz, teen NOTICES the pills are similar to their DRUNK feeling, pills are more convenient to carry around than a bottle.. then they run out too fast, dr dies NOT write a new rx, teen then steals pills from grandna or goes out and huys pills, pills get hard to find one day but the dealer iffers Heroin.. abd bam.. now they are stuck on heroin.. But in EACH SCENARIO:.. THOSE ADDICTS TOOK SONETHING THAT FID NOT BELONG TO THEM! AND WHEN THEY FID HAVE A LEGIT RX.. they did nit take it properly.. already had a HISTORY of drug use/abuse.. so the pojnt here is that had they been rx ZANAX instead of opioids.. they would have gotten addicted th o that instead and eventually would lead to H on the streets.. * its not DRUG TYPE (opioids) itself that causes addiction: its the PERSONALITY TYPE that already has a history of drug use and addictive NATURE to anything that gives them a "head-change".. * Drug addiction is not a result of DOCTORS who write rx opioids for LEGITIMATE PAIN PATIENTS.. Grandma with a broken hip, 20 yr old Jane with MS, 40 yr old John who worked hard labor as a carpenter, fibromyalgia, eds, crps.. its not OUR FAULT that we require our pain to be managed to live a decent quality of life, and its not the drs fault fir his CV compassion.. go after the REAL addicts and TREAT the REAL PATIENTS likeveterans with war injuries!!

In these cases, the solutioj is better social security through financial aid. Not MAID. I am shocked that this is happening in Canada and not the USA.
The US spends double the amount of money per capita on healthcare for Canada. The average SSDI payment is 1200 a month and they eligible for public healthcare and a load of other social services to keep them afloat . Assisted death is only legal in 10 US states because US citizens would rather spend money to save someone than end their lives, unlike the Canadian government who is only thinking of their stupid maple scented money.
in the US they just make you do it yourself from the same imposed circumstances. Canada is being open with their attitudes and possibly a less violent form of genocide vs US’ covert form that instead makes the individual appear at fault for their demise
This infuriates me.I have been paying taxes for 45 years as I started working at age 15 and that the government cannot find money to increase payments for the disabled or drops a person from disabled to senior benefits,lowering their income.If anything that senior show now be eligible for both.Mps have no problem double dipping getting their mp pensions and then other income too.Or the government has no problem finding money to constantly pour into indigenous people all their lives for this that and another thing yet taxpayers like me if needed have no safety nets if we need them when we are down and out.

I live on ODSP in Ontario and work part time. Can attest to how much the provincial government makes people with disabilities suffer. I have been on it since 1995, back when it was called Family Benefits before the name was changed to ODSP. The program is a total joke, and the provincial government has proven time and time again they believe people with disabilities should be made to suffer and live in poverty. I get $1,228 per month to live on, plus $81 per month extra for Special Diet because I have Type 2 Diabetes. Guess what the Shelter portion of the cheque is? $522 a month! Yes, that's right, that's what Doug Ford expects a single person on ODSP to pay for rent - totally unrealistic! You cannot even rent a room in a family home for that! Most people on ODSP are usually having to take money from the Basic Needs portion of their cheque just to cover rent, because the Shelter portion is too low and unrealistic. The worst part is, if you work you get penalized- about 60-70% of the money you earn is taken off your ODSP cheque! So you can't really get ahead much even by working. And, some of the programs ODSP have are screwed up....ODSP Employment Supports is a perfect example. If you apply for and get it, you get funding to a outside career agency who gets funding to help the client find a job....sounds good, BUT the problem is the career agency is paid AFTER the client has been working for 8 weeks! So what happens is you get some lazy worker who brushes up your resume a little bit, and then they sit back and tell the client to go job hunting all over the place, and then the worker receives the government money while the CLIENT did 80% of the work finding their job without the worker using their connections, or giving the client on the job training to accomodate their disability. Why should a worker get paid to do what I can do by myself by going to a unemployment office, update my resume there and find work by myself?! NO WAY!! Sorry, but a guaranteed income may sound good, but it's NOT the answer! Especially when it would end the additional supports that programs like ODSP and Ontario Works have. What is REALLY NEEDED is REFORM....not only to the amount of funding that is given to clients each month, but how the programs are run. There is a LOT of waste, mismanagement and inefficiency with both these programs in how the programs are administered and run, and how clients are treated. It's about time we get rid of Fatty Ford and elect a government who actually understands and gets it!
Not just rent somehow that $522 is supposed to cover rent heat hydro water garbage sewer. I figure if I get a nice fridge box I can do it up real nice, maybe I will get really lucky and find double wide fridge box and just wander from place to place carrying it on my back like a damn turtle 🐢.
Crazy, they only allow us $636 to survive off of in New Brunswick yet ''Higgs' is in surplus. $705 is misleading/false reporting, try talking to the people whom are most affected. Most New Brunswickers who should be fully granted a full Disability Amount, at best get granted the 'Extended Needs Benefits' designation as a cost saving measure, which leaves us at no more that $636 per Month. Top that off with the rental situation, I've currently been on the waiting list for subsidized housing since the summer of 2009 when I was first diagnosed. At the time I was renting a Bachelor Apartment for $365 per month, I was forced out by the Landlord as I am on a fixed income. That same unit is now Renting at $800. Top that off with butchers like Seville or K2, the bigger the Landlord/Company the more corrupt the Management. The Office of the Rentalsman is a joke, Service NB has no training, want or ability to handle Rentalsman Issues. But if you somehow do get a chance to actually speak with someone, with first hand knowledge, I've painfully learned how corrupt their 'Higher Ups' truly are. Oh Canada, we stand on guard for thee to assist us with ending our lives as we remain ignored and financially unviable to be aloud to lead a live worth living... Thanks Cantada, you make us proud.
Expecting anything useful from politicians is like expecting to find a giraffe in Antarctica. Just remember this simple axiom: 99% of politicians are absolutely corrupt. The other 1% are probably corrupt.
Years ago, in 'Hitler's' Germany they euthanized everyone with disabilities or mental illness against their will. It only took 80 years for Cantada to realize that the trick is to make them believe it is actually their choice and now provide a toll free number. Isn't it great to be a Cantadian?
A consequence of social benefits not quite being enough. Problem here is that the government actually benefits financially from these deaths. If there are such deaths shown to be from poverty, then the government must respond by increasing benefits across the board till death due to poverty ceases or at least is below a certain level.
_then the government must respond by increasing benefits across the board_ And where's that money going to come from? The government is already deep in deficit spending, and that massive deficit spending is why you are seeing inflation soar.
@@primmakinsofis614 And yet trillions can be spent on war. There is humanity in helping those who need help, to do otherwise is inhumane and selfish and the GDP of developed nations are more than sufficient to provide for all, it's just that we reward the rich and powerful. Does anyone really need a salary of over $10 million, yet that is common amongst CEO's. Warren Buffet himself said he pays less in taxes than his secretary. There's plenty that could pay for social benefits but politicians are just afraid of losing donations from the rich and powerful
An Ontario woman chose to be euthanized because her family could not visit her during lockdowns. Her family was allowed to visit her while she was being euthanized though. And the family were happy with that, which is a horrifying example of how far gone Canadians are. They couldn't go see her because she might die of covid but they could go see her be killed.
That’s not how the program works, you need to have a serious health complications not just because your family can’t visit you. And if that was the case, the three doctors that signed off for her to qualifying for the maid program should be held accountable. She wasn’t killed, she hast to sign that that’s what she wants to do. She is also given the opportunity to back out right up until the time of injection.
Very heartbreaking and very angering! I get where there coming from! But no one under any circumstance unless terminally ill, should ever feel that the best option is assisted death, especially due to poverty. @Trudeau @Poiliere @CanadianParliament time to open eyes! We are all are human beings, disability is def not a choice! I just can't wrap my mind around how little our lives means to our global leaders, next there gona start evaluating the mentally ill to see who is eligible to murder, really! Shame 🇨🇦disgusting Shame!
It’s not murder, the government is not holding a gun to a persons head to make the decision to apply for MAID. Also, changes are coming in 2023 to allow “the mentally ill” to apply also.
It is technically not murder since any killing within the legal bounds of the government is simply an execution. However the ethics of this are really evil. Death should never be an option - life is a gift and we all will have to answer for how we used that gift. I understand that people suffer, but through suffering meaning can be found, if you would only choose to let that meaning in.

im a single parent and am disabled I have disabled children. my now 20 year old son with autism as living on his own and it kills me because he deserves so much better. my other son is 16 soon and is autistic with other issues trying to figure out who he is and my daughter.. my sweet baby is a pre teen. we are struggling so bad. and we matter. its time the Government sees that. meds are unaffordable. cancer treatment isnt there we get to just die undiagnosed. london Ontario is hell on earth. odsp is a joke.. I cant even afford shoe's for winter...
Warcimaga.. I absolutely find HORRIFIC to suggest MAID instead of helping people... for instance, if the government would stop sending Money to ukraine, they could use that Money for people in Need in their own country... But I can't stop wondering why people won't stop birthing more children when they have problems... You have two children with autism and you had a third One??? That's Crazy, in my opinion. Government should help people in Need but people should also use their brain. Having children you can't afford to raise then demanding help, do you think it's Fair?
This video is mindblowing. I am disabled and waiting for disability benefits. I live in subsidized housing like this woman. She is living on twice the income that I do. I am very poor with serious disabilities. Medically assisted suicide due to finances is absolutely nuts!!! I'm flabbergasted.
You do not qualify for medically assisted dying just because of your finances. So if money wasn't an issue for these people, they would be happy with their lives?
@@mrmedicinal The guy with the nice wheelchair accessible bungalow, minivan with power lift, and drinking the Tim Hortons coffee has no sympathy from people struggling on disability.

@@bradcanning875 did you actually read my words? I am disabled. However, that said one doesn't need to be disabled to qualify for subsidized housing. All one needs is to be low income. Your comment doesn't make sense in relation to the topic. Take care brad. Sorry you don't like my opinion.
@@briankroger7879 Sure. The Conservatives have done so much for the disabled. Ever compare the provincial disability programs between Conservative and NDP run provinces?
As a disabled Canadian, I don't feel there is a choice. Governments talk fed or provincial never the poverty inflicted on ALL levels. Currently I am forced to live in squalor or go homeless living in Ontario. Rents are easy $1200./mth, my pittance is $1228. The wait for affordable housing is at least 10 yrs. The decades of mental abuse caused by legislated poverty make it clear to me, Canadians are NOT compassionate, disabled are not equal or even worthy of life. We have been provided only death, we will be punished until we make that choice. The governments of Canada ignored the United Nations plea to stop the abuse by poverty on disabled BEFORE COVID ever started. Canadian governments have ignored the disabled to death since. Oh Canada, my deadly native land.
This just shows that if Hitler had just put a positive, progressive and empathic spin on what he was trying to achieve, it would have been totally accepted in 21st century Canada.
And now a resident of the USA. So you'll see all the white race doing this to the poor and other races and women ... And gays. Now. They will make it legal for me. With their hate.
Our country discussed this and their solution was to make sure it was impossible for people to access MAD without a terminal illness and only a few months left. Frankly I am disgusted the answer has not been to improve life for those in poverty and living with disability. Not allowed to die, but free to suffer.
My brother has Asperger's and suffers from Bipolar and depression as an adult. There was a time when he wanted to kill himself. He went to the hospital here in the USA many times asked to die. If this policy was legal here in America he would be dead right now. Instead he has a case worker and is getting the help he needs and is mentally healthy again. God bless everyone. People should always get a second chance. Ending it all is not the answer.
Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figour that one out.... you don't have enough money to pay for the basics you get really depressed and feel hopeless. Been there and done that, and it's hard to mentally and financially come back from that.

This is crazy, I want to know who has to pay for those funeral services when these people seemingly have no more choices but to die. Funerals are not cheap. That money could better go to help those when still alive. May God help us all.
I have a disability, but I can’t imagine wanting medically assisted death. If I did that, my family would lose someone they love. My choir would be losing a tenor. The rest of my significant others would be negatively affected. I’m too young to die. I want to live to the fullest and continue to fight for disability rights.
Sometimes it’s not the disability itself but for example, in my case, it’s the intractable neuropathic pain that sucks the life out of me and having to spend 18 to 24 hours a day in bed. It becomes overwhelming after 28 years and my family understands. Maybe I’m too much of an empath.

I could write the proverbial book on this. One taboo area that is not talked about nearly enough are the sheer numbers of injured workers forced into poverty when the various provincial Workers Compensation Boards (WCB) routinely deny claims/benefits. Politicians have known about the countless issues about these WCB's for well over a decade and have done nothing. The most disgusting case I read about was a department store manager beaten and shot on the job during a robbery, The WCB put him through a living hell for over 15 years! In my case The WCB denied me more than two thrids of the recomended treatments that their own medical team indicated that I needed to recover from my back injury. That was over a decade ago and my back is messed up to the point where I'm on disability. I firmly believe that the reason why the government is expanding the list of those who would qualify for Medically Assisted Dying, is a means of getting rid of more and more of those with disabilities. The more they get rid of, the less they have to deal with.
@@yegfreethinker Once upon a time, these Worker's Compensation Boards (WCB) did offer assistance to injured workers. Whether it be various treatments and therapies, up to re-training. The worse case I ever read about was a department store manager was beaten and shot on the job during a robbery. The WCB put him through a iving hell for well over 10 years. Now more and more of these injured workers are denied the assistane they need to get back to work and forced into poverty.
I am on ODSP and I understand how this woman feels. I have thought about MAID but I will not leave my two cats behind. But if they were not here, I would choose MAID. ... We shouldn't have to live like this, we already suffer enough. The Government clearly doesn't care about our lives at all. It's painfully obvious.
@@Graymenn The Government is going to kill me anyway so shouldn't I be allowed to go out on my own terms instead of the long and slow painful death they have planned for many of us? ... Look this is an extreme thing. I understand that. But when the Government is SO BAD that people would rather die than keep living under it, we have a serious problem.
@@LFnova9 I agree, but you should take out your frustrations on the government, not yourself. They want you dead, so stick it to them by living and speaking out against them, organize. You still have a voice. You are not powerless.
@@Graymenn Thank you. Yes I know. But the people should see how real people on ODSP feel living under the program and its cruelty. This is why I spoke up and said how I feel most of the time when I think about the reality of the situation. I am not truly wanting to die. I am dying to live.
Crap. The problem isn't government. it's Conservative governments and voters who want tax cuts over humanity. It's doctors designating people "disability" when they aren't. As someone in a wheelchair I can tell you to just look at how few people in handicap parking are actually handicapped.
As a patient who has qualified for the maid program, I can assure you it’s not a nonchalant progress. You need to have serious health issues and be approved by three doctors for the process. it is also a personal choice. The government is not forcing people to kill themselves. I totally agree that they need to give more money for those who are disabled, and unable to earn income.
Why dont you look inwards at your role. Im not interested in leaving because of money. Im smart enough to use what i have well. I want to leave to get away from all you awful, stupid humans
Everyone has to live their own life. People say they need help but no one is going to take you by the hand and guide you through life. It's a personal journey that each person has to figure out for themselves. It's been this way since the beginning of time.
Society doesn't owe disabled people anything. And at some point, even the disabled are going to have to do for themselves as they can't keep expecting society to hold their hand forever.
The only reason you should be able to commit suicide in this way, is an imminant painful death, or serious chronic pain. They would rather kill someone than pay for services for that person. No vunerable people should be left with the choice of "die on the streets or kill yourself"

You're lucky, there are people on Alberta's AISH that receive payments in the 400's a month. There's always the premise amongst conservatives that family and friends should burden the load and governments should only assist but eventually, you will run out of support from family and friends and or the burden will become beyond what they can bear. The good thing about AISH is the medical, dental and eye coverage, medicines alone costs me in the thousands without insurance, well more than the monthly benefits.

I’m in the same position in America. I am stuck in a never ending cycle of poverty and pain. Hopelessness. I have cried out for help so many many many times and it will just never come. And this government does nothing to help. When I get a leg up, I was tboned bye another car. I lost my vehicle. Then the state took my liscence and told me I had to carry a special insurance that I cannot afford. I live off $600 in North port fl, where people that do not make more than $135,000 a year can afford to live. I can’t feed myself. I am diabetic so I can only afford the cheapest food and it’s all carbs so I’m constantly sick. I have NO FAMILY THAT WILL HELP ME. I CANNOT feed my dogs. I don’t know how I’m ever going to get a vehicle on the road. I don’t want to live like this anymore. I can’t. I haven’t smiled in a decade. I am fighting a loosing battle and all I want is to not be alone. But here I am, 3 am, in a pitch black room, hungry, in pain, w swollen legs from diabetes, and I’m only 36. Alone, w only the thoughts of being happy again. Everytime I go to sleep I see everything I long for. Love, happiness, family, prosperity. But then I wake back up in this war zone. My house is totally destroyed by hurricane Ian and it’s been 6 months w no help from fema, or the government. Or from governor desantis. I don’t even have a $1 to get clean water. It’s been 3 weeks w no clean water. I just want this to end. I’m not looking for sympathy. Maybe a little understanding of what happens when you allow 35 people in the US ( that’s 35 of the richest men in the USA) to own more wealth then 4,000,000,000 ( That’s billion) across the world. Could u imagine a world where 35 people outweigh the needs of 4,000,000,000 billion? Is that a world anyone wants to live in? It’ll never change

Although my country has not legalised euthanasia, this is disconcerting not just for future of humanity but on a personal basis as well. I would like to have some hope for the future... But being poor and having medical problems has constantly made me contemplate jumping out the window... I try my best on the financial side but the health issues can really be a burden. Multiple tumours extracted because of Li-Frameni Syndrome. High blood pressure, essential thrombocytopenia, psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis; has constantly made me feel very lethargic with low energy, constant daily back pain and joint pain, itchy skin, etc, can take its toll. And I am just 40 years old... How bad will things be later? Cancer at the moment is my likely life-taker, can I afford more hospital stays and treatments? I always wondered why I am born and ask God if I am a joke to him.
God cares for you and wants you to talk to him personally and have a relationship with him. God made hundreds of promises for us so that we know that we can trust God and give him control in our life. Jesus loves and died for you on the cross. God wouldn't want you to give up, just like God would never want me to give up. John 3:16-21 ESV - "“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.”"
Sickens me how Trudeau keeps making more cutbacks,refuses to offer full time increase in wages for the disabled,yet are the 1st to offer them Maid. Its criminal the Direction Canada has taken with Trudeau's Leadership. Trudeau needs to go. A lady in Ontario with a severe Allergy to smoke stuck in a complex that had cigarette smoke traveling through all the ducks. She pleaded with the Government to find her suitable housing. They never helped her,so she ended her life with Maid this year. Its sick.
The fact they set the disability compensation purposely below the poverty line is very sad and makes me mad!!!
The real problem is the disability designation. At least half the people on it are like the people in handicap parking. They are there because doctors give them the designation out of sympathy and not genuine need.
It’s the same in Australia. Awful. And the unemployment rate is a scandal.
Cool do something about it then you have a few months before people like me get to apply how many people will die before things change.
ikr 😢 this is disturbing & reminds me more of eugenics than “assistance”
@@mercedes_420 That's because it is.
My understanding is that an inmate in Ontario costs taxpayers around $150,000 per year. Someone on disability in Ontario gets $15,000 a year. So in Ontario a disabled person is worth 1/10th of 1 inmate. Just think about that for a moment.
Let's be very clear. The spin doctor's let you believe it costs that much to house an inmate. It doesn't. That costing average is actually fancy government accounting whereby the guards are some of the country's highest paid employees. Further, I challenge you to sit in a court room. The judge may hear 2 cases in a day, the rest of the time postpone cases repeatedly. It's ludicrous and churning money for the judiciary. The waste of money on bureaucracy is rampant. Inmates are absolutely gouged and leave prison worse off and with nothing to show for the time and money wasted.
All this to say that Canada has a big problem of funneling money to cronies and fat cats while its most vulnerable people starve. Remember the Brian Mulroney scandal when he stated that he needed the illicit funds because he had a lifestyle to maintain? Yeah, that's where the money goes.
Most people in prison aren't even truly criminals, I would say 85% are actually just traumatized poor people and minorities. They fell on bad times and made poor choices due to the very lack of supports we are discussing!
We can't let political talking points distract us! The powers that be take care of corporate interest and the upper middle class and higher that feed those systems. The rest of us are drowning and it's about time we get a life raft!

@@darrencraig9263 I wish it were true, but the people in prison are highly neglected. You are not connecting the money dots as I've laid them out for you. The money spent is spent on the prison system itself, not the inmates. They work up to 3 jobs for a max per diem of $5 per day, regardless. They MAY get life-saving treatments, yes, if the doctor is compassionate. However the daily care is NOT of your choosing, the jaded nursing staff is inept and most of your care is left to the other inmates who are not prepared or trained in anyway. The prescriptions filled are only the ones that can be served by a nurse (for their profit) and you may be signed up to be used as a lab rat to trial new drugs. If you need stronger meds or you die from the cocktail they conjured up, oh well. MANY people die in prison because simple things are neglected, you are usually ignored if you cry out for help. If you're lucky a real nurse who committed a crime is in your bunk. I'm dead serious. 😑 The dentist in provincial prison in Québec is actually a veterinarian. 😳
Let that sink in...
Well, yeah, jailing people is expensive. You're better off giving someone 50000 a year so they don't fall into criminality than waiting for them to commit a crime and then having to keep them in jail for 150000 a year. Unfortunately most politicians don't understand numbers and just want to look "tough on crime".
Sorry but even prisoners deserve life. You gonna tell someone who is in there because they robbed a place because they were trying to SURVIVE CAPITALISM that they are worthless? Or someone in there for a parking ticket that they are worthless. Cut this genocial sentiment out fam. It's disgusting

This is one of the reasons why disability should be raised to $2000 a month.
I agree but I think everyone should have a guranteed income of $2000/month. It doesn't have to be a UBI as that would cost wayy to much but it could be a income floor that phases out as your income grows.

I have been on disability in BC for 13 years until recently retiring. I didn't have the help of family but figured out how to survive. They purchase me a new power wheelchair when I needed it. They purchased my teeth and hearing aids, and all medical aids/supplies. However, many people and doctors are using the "disability" designation to get a larger welfare cheque. This also puts people with serious mobility or medical issues in long lines for wheelchair accessible housing and especially handicap parking.
@@graceb4732 The problem isn't so much the government as it is the disability designation. I have been on disability in BC for 13 years. They purchase my power wheelchairs and teeth and hearing aids and all medical aids/supplies. The biggest problem is the disability subsidized housing is like handicap parking? It's full of people who really aren't either. This is a non-issue because you can lay in bed and take an overdose of pills if you want to die.
I am on Ontario Disability after a work place accident years ago. Workers Compensation closed my file after found a job but I was unable to sustain it. Ontario disability won't cover physiotherapy to help me with the chronic pain and weakness I have. It's not part of the program. Can you believe there are no benefits to provide physical therapy to people with physical disabilities?
Our system only values people who can earn money for the rich. If you are old or disabled you have no value. It's harsh, but it's true. That is capitalism.
I would argue that EVERY system in history has valued people that contribute the most. How else do you form a system? After all, the people that produce and contribute more than they consume are in effect, carrying the weight of those that do not, or can not.
There should honestly be a guranteed income so no one has to live below the poverty line and disabled people should also have ODSP to cover medical costs but ideally the guranteed income would be enough ($2000/month) that ODSP wouldn't have to pay out any funds.
BC is much better but the biggest problem is doctors submitting patients to the disability programs and padding the reasons. Look at handicap parking and disability housing. 70% are not needing either.
@@vicgamesvt9682 Who is going to fund that? If that was the case half the people on minimum wage would quit their job.
Not every one who employs you is rich first if all. And If you were living in a state socialist society, you would only be valued by how much you could do labor for the whole. Stalin would have shot you because you would have been useless to the whole

actually the current poverty is created by the Canadian Government at the Federal and Provincial levels. Medically assisted death is the current option for the poverty stricken citizens to alleviate the burden of supporting them by the government through taxation. Doctors were eliminated in Canada through governmental restrictions, this will open the doors for creating a General Euthanasia Act being passed by Parliament. As the citizens are unable to access medical care for chronic diseases due to age or ability to pay for medication or treatments, expect to see government making it mandatory to report for medically assisted death by order of the government.

Canada is an amazing country and assisted suicide for those at the end of life who are living in agony deserve a humane option. We wouldn't let an animal suffer and not euthanize it. However, when the government offers to kill you because the services you need to help you aren't there, compounded by one's inability to pay for them privately, offers suicide as a solution, something is terribly, terribly wrong.

You have only the social safety net to thank for that. People ceded family care to the government and private institutions in favor of career and lifestyle.
A lot of people, like myself, come from abusive families who never cared about us as children, who hated us and tried to end it. I'm lucky I made it out alive and I don't care if my "mother" rots on the street.
It is common for a person with a disability to outlive their parents and not marry or have children.
I wish we had people in charge who actually cared about Canadians & our country. Instead of identity politics & division.

Either 1:
They were disobedient teens.. smoked weed and drank alcohol and went to party alot.. then one day they got into GRANDMA'S medicine cabinet and took her pills.. from then on they kept STEALING PILLS, THEN BOUGHT PILLS, THEN GOT ON H.. AND NOW MANY CHOOSE FENTYNAL!!
or 2
Again: teenage disobedience is 1 marker.. already having exposure to ALCOHOL/WEED/PARTYS..
^^this type of teen (already disobedient but hidibg it from parents) breaks theur ankle while out with friends, Doctor PRESCRIBES a 7 DAY AMOUNT (yes drs dont actually rx a plethora of pills for ACUTE INJURIES!!)..
The TEEN takes their meds but does not follow drs inatructionz, teen NOTICES the pills are similar to their DRUNK feeling, pills are more convenient to carry around than a bottle.. then they run out too fast, dr dies NOT write a new rx, teen then steals pills from grandna or goes out and huys pills, pills get hard to find one day but the dealer iffers Heroin.. abd bam.. now they are stuck on heroin..
But in EACH SCENARIO:.. THOSE ADDICTS TOOK SONETHING THAT FID NOT BELONG TO THEM! AND WHEN THEY FID HAVE A LEGIT RX.. they did nit take it properly.. already had a HISTORY of drug use/abuse.. so the pojnt here is that had they been rx ZANAX instead of opioids.. they would have gotten addicted th o that instead and eventually would lead to H on the streets..
* its not DRUG TYPE (opioids) itself that causes addiction: its the PERSONALITY TYPE that already has a history of drug use and addictive NATURE to anything that gives them a "head-change"..
* Drug addiction is not a result of DOCTORS who write rx opioids for LEGITIMATE PAIN PATIENTS..
Grandma with a broken hip, 20 yr old Jane with MS, 40 yr old John who worked hard labor as a carpenter, fibromyalgia, eds, crps.. its not OUR FAULT that we require our pain to be managed to live a decent quality of life, and its not the drs fault fir his CV compassion.. go after the REAL addicts and TREAT the REAL PATIENTS likeveterans with war injuries!!

I have been on it since 1995, back when it was called Family Benefits before the name was changed to ODSP. The program is a total joke, and the provincial government has proven time and time again they believe people with disabilities should be made to suffer and live in poverty.
I get $1,228 per month to live on, plus $81 per month extra for Special Diet because I have Type 2 Diabetes. Guess what the Shelter portion of the cheque is? $522 a month! Yes, that's right, that's what Doug Ford expects a single person on ODSP to pay for rent - totally unrealistic! You cannot even rent a room in a family home for that! Most people on ODSP are usually having to take money from the Basic Needs portion of their cheque just to cover rent, because the Shelter portion is too low and unrealistic. The worst part is, if you work you get penalized- about 60-70% of the money you earn is taken off your ODSP cheque! So you can't really get ahead much even by working. And, some of the programs ODSP have are screwed up....ODSP Employment Supports is a perfect example. If you apply for and get it, you get funding to a outside career agency who gets funding to help the client find a job....sounds good, BUT the problem is the career agency is paid AFTER the client has been working for 8 weeks! So what happens is you get some lazy worker who brushes up your resume a little bit, and then they sit back and tell the client to go job hunting all over the place, and then the worker receives the government money while the CLIENT did 80% of the work finding their job without the worker using their connections, or giving the client on the job training to accomodate their disability. Why should a worker get paid to do what I can do by myself by going to a unemployment office, update my resume there and find work by myself?! NO WAY!!
Sorry, but a guaranteed income may sound good, but it's NOT the answer! Especially when it would end the additional supports that programs like ODSP and Ontario Works have. What is REALLY NEEDED is REFORM....not only to the amount of funding that is given to clients each month, but how the programs are run. There is a LOT of waste, mismanagement and inefficiency with both these programs in how the programs are administered and run, and how clients are treated. It's about time we get rid of Fatty Ford and elect a government who actually understands and gets it!
Not just rent somehow that $522 is supposed to cover rent heat hydro water garbage sewer. I figure if I get a nice fridge box I can do it up real nice, maybe I will get really lucky and find double wide fridge box and just wander from place to place carrying it on my back like a damn turtle 🐢.
Crazy, they only allow us $636 to survive off of in New Brunswick yet ''Higgs' is in surplus.
$705 is misleading/false reporting, try talking to the people whom are most affected.
Most New Brunswickers who should be fully granted a full Disability Amount, at best get granted the 'Extended Needs Benefits' designation as a cost saving measure, which leaves us at no more that $636 per Month. Top that off with the rental situation, I've currently been on the waiting list for subsidized housing since the summer of 2009 when I was first diagnosed. At the time I was renting a Bachelor Apartment for $365 per month, I was forced out by the Landlord as I am on a fixed income. That same unit is now Renting at $800. Top that off with butchers like Seville or K2, the bigger the Landlord/Company the more corrupt the Management. The Office of the Rentalsman is a joke, Service NB has no training, want or ability to handle Rentalsman Issues. But if you somehow do get a chance to actually speak with someone, with first hand knowledge, I've painfully learned how corrupt their 'Higher Ups' truly are. Oh Canada, we stand on guard for thee to assist us with ending our lives as we remain ignored and financially unviable to be aloud to lead a live worth living... Thanks Cantada, you make us proud.
Expecting anything useful from politicians is like expecting to find a giraffe in Antarctica.
Just remember this simple axiom:
99% of politicians are absolutely corrupt.
The other 1% are probably corrupt.
Years ago, in 'Hitler's' Germany they euthanized everyone with disabilities or mental illness against their will. It only took 80 years for Cantada to realize that the trick is to make them believe it is actually their choice and now provide a toll free number. Isn't it great to be a Cantadian?
A consequence of social benefits not quite being enough. Problem here is that the government actually benefits financially from these deaths. If there are such deaths shown to be from poverty, then the government must respond by increasing benefits across the board till death due to poverty ceases or at least is below a certain level.
👍
_then the government must respond by increasing benefits across the board_
And where's that money going to come from? The government is already deep in deficit spending, and that massive deficit spending is why you are seeing inflation soar.
@@primmakinsofis614 And yet trillions can be spent on war. There is humanity in helping those who need help, to do otherwise is inhumane and selfish and the GDP of developed nations are more than sufficient to provide for all, it's just that we reward the rich and powerful. Does anyone really need a salary of over $10 million, yet that is common amongst CEO's. Warren Buffet himself said he pays less in taxes than his secretary. There's plenty that could pay for social benefits but politicians are just afraid of losing donations from the rich and powerful
@@primmakinsofis614 I can almost guarantee you that every dollar given in benefits is spent locally, and not going to some offshore account.
An Ontario woman chose to be euthanized because her family could not visit her during lockdowns.
Her family was allowed to visit her while she was being euthanized though.
And the family were happy with that, which is a horrifying example of how far gone Canadians are.
They couldn't go see her because she might die of covid but they could go see her be killed.
That’s not how the program works, you need to have a serious health complications not just because your family can’t visit you. And if that was the case, the three doctors that signed off for her to qualifying for the maid program should be held accountable. She wasn’t killed, she hast to sign that that’s what she wants to do. She is also given the opportunity to back out right up until the time of injection.

Very heartbreaking and very angering! I get where there coming from!
But no one under any circumstance unless terminally ill, should ever feel that the best option is assisted death,
especially due to poverty.
@Trudeau @Poiliere @CanadianParliament time to open eyes!
We are all are human beings, disability is def not a choice!
I just can't wrap my mind around how little our lives means to our global leaders,
next there gona start evaluating the mentally ill to see who is eligible to murder, really! Shame 🇨🇦disgusting Shame!
It’s not murder, the government is not holding a gun to a persons head to make the decision to apply for MAID. Also, changes are coming in 2023 to allow “the mentally ill” to apply also.
It is technically not murder since any killing within the legal bounds of the government is simply an execution. However the ethics of this are really evil. Death should never be an option - life is a gift and we all will have to answer for how we used that gift. I understand that people suffer, but through suffering meaning can be found, if you would only choose to let that meaning in.
@@seraphim95 Have you suffered every waking moment of your life for 28 years? Tell me how you "understand" how it makes me feel from high up on your ethical pedestal.
im a single parent and am disabled I have disabled children. my now 20 year old son with autism as living on his own and it kills me because he deserves so much better. my other son is 16 soon and is autistic with other issues trying to figure out who he is and my daughter.. my sweet baby is a pre teen. we are struggling so bad. and we matter. its time the Government sees that. meds are unaffordable. cancer treatment isnt there we get to just die undiagnosed. london Ontario is hell on earth. odsp is a joke.. I cant even afford shoe's for winter...
USA...same, etc our dogs get treated better, or even for free if they are suffering. Im sorry for you, your kids and me.
Warcimaga.. I absolutely find HORRIFIC to suggest MAID instead of helping people... for instance, if the government would stop sending Money to ukraine, they could use that Money for people in Need in their own country... But I can't stop wondering why people won't stop birthing more children when they have problems... You have two children with autism and you had a third One??? That's Crazy, in my opinion. Government should help people in Need but people should also use their brain. Having children you can't afford to raise then demanding help, do you think it's Fair?
This video is mindblowing. I am disabled and waiting for disability benefits. I live in subsidized housing like this woman. She is living on twice the income that I do. I am very poor with serious disabilities. Medically assisted suicide due to finances is absolutely nuts!!! I'm flabbergasted.
If you are not disabled why are you in subsidized housing?
You do not qualify for medically assisted dying just because of your finances. So if money wasn't an issue for these people, they would be happy with their lives?
@@mrmedicinal The guy with the nice wheelchair accessible bungalow, minivan with power lift, and drinking the Tim Hortons coffee has no sympathy from people struggling on disability. We can only dream of having that. I have to struggle to transit and ride to a Tim Hortons which I couldn't afford to waste on a coffee at their price. What a joke this video is. And that women with 2 high end wheelchairs and that big well furnished apartment that allows a pet. What a gifted life she has.
@@bradcanning875 did you actually read my words? I am disabled. However, that said one doesn't need to be disabled to qualify for subsidized housing. All one needs is to be low income. Your comment doesn't make sense in relation to the topic. Take care brad. Sorry you don't like my opinion.

No we need people without real disabilities to stop leeching of the system meant to serve those who are disabled.
@@briankroger7879 Sure. The Conservatives have done so much for the disabled. Ever compare the provincial disability programs between Conservative and NDP run provinces?
As a disabled Canadian, I don't feel there is a choice. Governments talk fed or provincial never the poverty inflicted on ALL levels.
Currently I am forced to live in squalor or go homeless living in Ontario. Rents are easy $1200./mth, my pittance is $1228. The wait for affordable housing is at least 10 yrs.
The decades of mental abuse caused by legislated poverty make it clear to me, Canadians are NOT compassionate, disabled are not equal or even worthy of life. We have been provided only death, we will be punished until we make that choice. The governments of Canada ignored the United Nations plea to stop the abuse by poverty on disabled BEFORE COVID ever started. Canadian governments have ignored the disabled to death since.
Oh Canada, my deadly native land.
We could have ended Homelessness in America with all the cash we sent to Ukraine.
This just shows that if Hitler had just put a positive, progressive and empathic spin on what he was trying to achieve, it would have been totally accepted in 21st century Canada.

And now a resident of the USA. So you'll see all the white race doing this to the poor and other races and women ... And gays. Now. They will make it legal for me. With their hate.
Our country discussed this and their solution was to make sure it was impossible for people to access MAD without a terminal illness and only a few months left.
Frankly I am disgusted the answer has not been to improve life for those in poverty and living with disability. Not allowed to die, but free to suffer.
My brother has Asperger's and suffers from Bipolar and depression as an adult. There was a time when he wanted to kill himself. He went to the hospital here in the USA many times asked to die. If this policy was legal here in America he would be dead right now. Instead he has a case worker and is getting the help he needs and is mentally healthy again. God bless everyone. People should always get a second chance. Ending it all is not the answer.
Ending it all is definitely an answer, it's just not the answer you like.
Really cause no help in most of US.
Disabled Canadians should sneak into the States and cross back into Canada at Roxham Road for better care and more money.
Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figour that one out.... you don't have enough money to pay for the basics you get really depressed and feel hopeless. Been there and done that, and it's hard to mentally and financially come back from that.
It is even harder when you have a physical or mental disability/disease that you know you can't come back from.
Oh give me a break. People throughout history have gone through actual hell and still held on to survival.
So what? Just let me have a legal way to end. And I'll be grateful. Without any requirements to force me to live.

The rest of my significant others would be negatively affected. I’m too young to die. I want to live to the fullest and continue to fight for disability rights.
Sometimes it’s not the disability itself but for example, in my case, it’s the intractable neuropathic pain that sucks the life out of me and having to spend 18 to 24 hours a day in bed. It becomes overwhelming after 28 years and my family understands. Maybe I’m too much of an empath.

Please how can I send money to her??? How can I reach out to her??? I need to know please. I am so angry at the Canadian government. This practice is evil
I could write the proverbial book on this. One taboo area that is not talked about nearly enough are the sheer numbers of injured workers forced into poverty when the various provincial Workers Compensation Boards (WCB) routinely deny claims/benefits. Politicians have known about the countless issues about these WCB's for well over a decade and have done nothing. The most disgusting case I read about was a department store manager beaten and shot on the job during a robbery, The WCB put him through a living hell for over 15 years!
In my case The WCB denied me more than two thrids of the recomended treatments that their own medical team indicated that I needed to recover from my back injury. That was over a decade ago and my back is messed up to the point where I'm on disability.
I firmly believe that the reason why the government is expanding the list of those who would qualify for Medically Assisted Dying, is a means of getting rid of more and more of those with disabilities. The more they get rid of, the less they have to deal with.
No....the less of us have to deal with them and all of you.
maybe we should give them "assistance" instead
@@yegfreethinker Once upon a time, these Worker's Compensation Boards (WCB) did offer assistance to injured workers. Whether it be various treatments and therapies, up to re-training. The worse case I ever read about was a department store manager was beaten and shot on the job during a robbery. The WCB put him through a iving hell for well over 10 years.
Now more and more of these injured workers are denied the assistane they need to get back to work and forced into poverty.

@@Graymenn Thank you. Yes I know. But the people should see how real people on ODSP feel living under the program and its cruelty. This is why I spoke up and said how I feel most of the time when I think about the reality of the situation. I am not truly wanting to die. I am dying to live.
Please dont. Its not the right answer.
legal actions really should be taken against government for being so nonchalant about peoples lives....this is outragious.
Crap. The problem isn't government. it's Conservative governments and voters who want tax cuts over humanity. It's doctors designating people "disability" when they aren't. As someone in a wheelchair I can tell you to just look at how few people in handicap parking are actually handicapped.
As a patient who has qualified for the maid program, I can assure you it’s not a nonchalant progress. You need to have serious health issues and be approved by three doctors for the process. it is also a personal choice. The government is not forcing people to kill themselves. I totally agree that they need to give more money for those who are disabled, and unable to earn income.
@@mrmedicinalI agree with part but Trudeau is expanding to mental health and that’s not alright
@@myles3856 so you're discriminating against people with mental illness. I think they deal with that enough already.
Why dont you look inwards at your role. Im not interested in leaving because of money. Im smart enough to use what i have well. I want to leave to get away from all you awful, stupid humans
what she said is true. society doesent give a damm about disabled people
Everyone has to live their own life. People say they need help but no one is going to take you by the hand and guide you through life. It's a personal journey that each person has to figure out for themselves. It's been this way since the beginning of time.
Society doesn't owe disabled people anything. And at some point, even the disabled are going to have to do for themselves as they can't keep expecting society to hold their hand forever.
The only reason you should be able to commit suicide in this way, is an imminant painful death, or serious chronic pain.
They would rather kill someone than pay for services for that person.
No vunerable people should be left with the choice of "die on the streets or kill yourself"

And this government does nothing to help. When I get a leg up, I was tboned bye another car. I lost my vehicle. Then the state took my liscence and told me I had to carry a special insurance that I cannot afford.

I am diabetic so I can only afford the cheapest food and it’s all carbs so I’m constantly sick. I have NO FAMILY THAT WILL HELP ME. I CANNOT feed my dogs. I don’t know how I’m ever going to get a vehicle on the road. I don’t want to live like this anymore. I can’t. I haven’t smiled in a decade. I am fighting a loosing battle and all I want is to not be alone. But here I am, 3 am, in a pitch black room, hungry, in pain, w swollen legs from diabetes, and I’m only 36.

And I am just 40 years old... How bad will things be later? Cancer at the moment is my likely life-taker, can I afford more hospital stays and treatments?
I always wondered why I am born and ask God if I am a joke to him.
God cares for you and wants you to talk to him personally and have a relationship with him. God made hundreds of promises for us so that we know that we can trust God and give him control in our life. Jesus loves and died for you on the cross. God wouldn't want you to give up, just like God would never want me to give up. John 3:16-21 ESV - "“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.”"
