| Medically assisted death. | |
| We've been talking about that. Imagine big pharma being able to assist you in dying simply because you don't want to be here anymore. | |
| Now, of course, when I first talked about this issue many moons ago, everyone said, no, you must have never known somebody struggling who was dying with cancer and the pain that they're in. | |
| And I wish they could have just taken a pill. | |
| And I said, it's so obvious that The government will start with that. | |
| Of course, they're going to say the pitch is always something that people go, I could get behind that, right? | |
| Pitch is always somebody that is suffering from a terminal illness. | |
| They're in so much pain. | |
| They're going to die anyway. | |
| Can't we just leave that for them by helping them die? | |
| And then, of course, it's going to take on something much, much worse, which is exactly what's going on in Canada with their medical assisted death program, which is under the acronym MADE. So there's an anorexic woman right now. | |
| She's waiting for 2024 when, of course, Canada is going to expand its new assisted death laws. | |
| Now, to give you a refresher here, Canada legalized assisted death in 2016 for people | |
| that were terminally ill. | |
| Then they expanded it in 2021 to people that had incurable but not terminal conditions, | |
| right, that give them grief. | |
| I don't know, I have asthma. | |
| Do I apply? | |
| Could I just apply to die, just like it's incurable, but it's not terminal? | |
| Who knows? | |
| Well, now there are going to be even further legal changes, and this woman can't wait for | |
| 2024 because under these further legal changes, she is going to be able to, as someone suffering | |
| with just anorexia, kill herself. | |
| Take a listen to what she has to say. | |
| Her name is Lisa Pauly. | |
| She is 47 years old, in her own words. | |
| Take a listen. Do you want to die now? | |
| If the option was there today, I would, yes. | |
| I am not going to change. | |
| Like, I don't want to recover, meaning I don't want to gain weight. | |
| Because to recover you need to gain weight. | |
| I don't want to. So, yeah, that's the course I want to take. | |
| So this is actually heartbreaking. | |
| The background here is that she has had a warm relationship with her body since she was eight years old, and she has been struggling with an eating disorder then for nearly 40 years, right? | |
| She's obviously in a condition where she needs a lot of help. | |
| She needs a lot of mental help. | |
| She needs therapy. I have spoken openly about my battle with anorexia when I was much younger. | |
| And to hear somebody say this and to think that they can walk into a doctor's office and have someone sign off on them killing themselves— It really sends a chill down my spine because how many younger girls, 18, 19, 20 years old, struggle with anorexia who think that eating one morsel of food, they'd rather die than eat one morsel of food because they like the control they have over their body because the idea of eating makes them physically sick. | |
| And now they're gonna know that there's a program where they can just choose to die rather than to eat | |
| that will be available. | |
| An expansion of the criteria for medically assisted deaths will come into force in March of 2024, | |
| which will allow Canadians like Polly, whose sole underlying condition is mental illness, | |
| to choose medically assisted deaths. | |
| You imagine if all you're suffering from is any mental illness, you will be able to die. | |
| Well, what is implied in mental illness is that you are mentally unstable. | |
| A mentally unstable person should not be able to choose to die simply because they say they want to die, right? | |
| You could imagine someone could go through a bad breakup, a bad divorce, and say, I just can't see the future. | |
| I can't see I'll ever be able to get over this, so please just kill me. | |
| And Canada's going to say, yeah, no, that's totally fine. | |
| If it's just mental illness, We are willing to sign off on it as long as you are committed to the idea of dying. | |
| These situations are always temporal. | |
| I shared with you a circumstance on a prior episode of a man who wants to die in Canada and actually got one doctor to sign off on it simply because he's poor and can't afford his rent. | |
| Again, a temporary situation that the government is looking at and saying, well, at least we can get these people gone. | |
| It is so demonic and it is so dark. | |
| And it is stunning to me that people did not see this coming down the pipeline, that people always fall for the pitch. | |
| It always sounds so great. | |
| Oh, it's just going to be people that are in pain. | |
| And then other people say, well, I just wanted it to be people that were terminally ill. | |
| It doesn't matter what you just wanted, right? | |
| This is why you have to be forceful and you have to remain moral in these decisions. | |
| You cannot give the government the ability to decide when somebody is able to commit suicide, obviously. | |
| And so I just wanted to maintain an update on these circumstances because Canada is a very dark country. | |
| What is going on in Canada, what has gone on in Canada... | |
| The socialist standards that have gone on and the amount of power that the government has usurped from the people is always something to watch because these are our neighbors to the north. | |
| So anything that is happening up there, it is entirely feasible, will become a real discussion here. | |
| It already is. People just don't see it coming. | |
| Hopefully, me talking about it allows you to see it coming. | |
| If you like this video, you will like the full episode even better. |
