The article is well written. Reading it was similar to reluctantly getting into a car with people you don't trust knowing the car is going somewhere you don't want to go, and then the car ride goes on and on, in a continuous descent.

Suicide is painless. Especially when its medically induced. Shove some ketimine in there and wait for the breathing to stop.

Maybe these people, or at least a good percentage, should try living somewhere other than Canuckistan, maybe they wouldn’t be so unhappy.

And down the eliptical “slippery slope” they slide.....
IF you’re not a socialist/communist, then it’s your “time” to go...
It’s coming to em and fast.

Wouldn’t it be easier to move somewhere else?

Yes. If you’re unvaccinated, then your ‘time’ is up.

Apparently Nova Scotia just banned anyone from hiking/walking trails due to the dry conditions...they are just insane.

Only if there is video of sweeping landscapes accompanied with classical music, à la Soylent Green.

Canada is doing this to make way for newcomers

“...Canada is doing this to make way for newcomers...”

We stopped at a WalMart in Fredricton, New Brunswick Canada not too long ago.
I thought we had been teleported to Mumbai, India. Very few whites and they were mostly of the gray-haired variety. No young white folks anywhere to be seen.

It’s not just Canada. The decadent nations of the West are suicidal, France and Germany, for example. They can find nothing in their culture worth preserving and are rapidly destroying themselves.

Patients meticulously orchestrate their final moments, planning celebrations around them: weekend house parties before a Sunday-night euthanasia in the garden; a Catholic priest to deliver last rites....

Catholic Priests may NOT participate in, and especially offer a holy sacrament for, suicide.

This article is either false, or there is a priest in Canada who must be severely reprimanded.

Let’s be fair here. Assisted suicide (voluntary or not) provides an immediate and lasting treatment for mild to moderate cases of depression.

“a lifestyle option”

Geesh. The perversion of language continues.

I would love to see the political breakdown of who chooses suicide

Suicide is painless.


Have you tried it yourself? Or have you asked others who did?

If that was the one between Highway 2 & 8, my wife and I know that one.

I do not care who kills themselves. Just do not do it in public.

FYI “Suicide Is Painless” is the M*A*S*H* theme song.
