Lauren BrooksHostI mean, like, uh, there's, there's been a, for as long as I have been aware of political discussion, there has been a back and forth fight about whether or not this should happen.
And we are to the point where the people who push until they get what they want, no matter how long it takes, whether it's right or wrong, and no matter how other people think or feel about it, are going to get their way.
There will be probably in every Western country some sort of assisted suicide legislation.
... over the past few months from the things that we've looked at, the things that we've read about, what's wrong with the existing systems for it, like MAID, and we've looked at some of the attitudes toward men that may increase their risk over and above that of women of being encouraged to die rather than recover when they're suffering.
So tonight we're gonna look at some human rights considerations and recommendations.
Like, we've already gone through the darkest part of the dark discussion about this, what, what's wrong with it, what's bad about it, what sucks about it, what risks it poses, what threats it poses to, say, men who are depressed, men who are, uh, chronically ill, men who are inconvenient to society in some way, right? But we also, the other end of that is we have to talk about, all right, what can be done to mitigate those risks? What can be done to essentially put a condom on this, this pack of AIDS-infested legislation to make it as non-dangerous as humanly possible, and still preserve people's right to choose to not face an end that is untenable, an end that is, uh, too painful to face or too, too otherwise, um, awful to face.
Uh, uh, what we can look at is Canada, obviously, 'cause, 'cause they got in there on the ground floor-
... uh, before anyone else, as they usually do with, um, these oikophobic procedures.
I'm aware that it's something like 95% I say native Canadians, but by that I mean European Canadians.
Um, I, which, which I think is pr- uh, proportional to the population of, um, Canada.
I, I, I try to avoid the phrase white, because it is a little bit reductive, but it, you know, it has been mostly Canadians of, uh, European descent for obvious reasons, because you don't want the, uh, the bad press that comes from murdering anyone else at the hands of the government.
But as far as I can tell, um, they're killing an awful lot of Canadian women as well as Canadian men, and-
