@halfway2sane @stevia456 @Daniccca_ooh @CTVToronto True, they could have pursued that angle more explicitly, but they almost didn’t need to because her lack of travel insurance is all most people are talking about. And some folks who didn’t know you need travel insurance lwhile visiting Canada are getting an education.

@LeeParpart @stevia456 @Daniccca_ooh @CTVToronto They contacted a hospital that they know is bound by privacy laws and wouldn’t comment to try to help this guy get a discount. That’s the story I read. The story was not about your travel insurance options - if it was, they would’ve contacted travel agents, insurers, govt. 😂

@KristinRaworth How come doctors can’t just give people dying really good meds? I don’t understand why they are in pain if we have the ability to ease it. It doesn’t make any sense to offer MAID before extreme drugs.

My step mother used MAiD. I don’t know if she would have died within a year but I know she would have lost capacity to consent, advanced consent being also removed by this bill, I do know she was in pain every single moment of her life. I know her disease was going to kill her slowly and brutally. I know MAiD was what she wanted and the most peaceful way to go. This bill is not reflecting the reality of those who are dying from debilitating illness.
Courtney Theriault@cspotweet

Alberta introduces bill stipulating that only those likely to die of natural causes within a year would be eligible for medical assistance in dying, better known as MAID. timescolonist.com/national-news/…

@Word_on_a_Wire @RonFilipkowski A solid point?? The question had to do not alerting our ALLIES to a move that would create chaos in the Middle East and affect EVERYONE. Japan was NOT our ally in WW2.

@halfway2sane @stevia456 @Daniccca_ooh @CTVToronto This is reporting 101. Completely standard. You world rather they print the story without confirming with the hospital what took place or giving them a chance to comment is a way that reminds folks that medical care is only covered for citizens?

@Peorhum @CTVToronto I think the coverage is a useful reminder that health care in Canada is only covered for citizens and that everyone else needs to buy travel insurance. Shocking that people need a reminder, but apparently they do.

@diddydindunuff @OcamsRazorblade @Garnet_2203 She received medical care in a country where she is not a citizen, and she didn’t buy travel insurance. In what world does that make the healthcare providers scammers? Canadian tax payers will end up covering her bill. That’s some serious BS.

@ckolchacksghost @markmurphy9 @DemocraticWins She was 13, not 14, and he wasn’t out to marry her. What’s your point? That he’s almost innocent? Or that it doesn’t matter because she was almost old enough to give consent? Pretty weird hill to die on.

Carl Kolchak’s Ghost 👻🇺🇸🇺🇸
In 1980 (when this debunked allegation is from), the age of consent in multiple states was 14, or 12 for marriage (with parental signature). While I don’t agree with this, it was the daily norm at the time working in Vegas. Most arranged marriages throughout the world occurred at 12 for the females.

@MedRest1 @PropheticVal @DHSgov @samstein I believe that’s exactly what she’d prefer. And she’s worked it all out that this would have been the kinder option. No concept that we’re a country of immigrants, or that Christ commands His followers (of which I’m pretty sure she claims to be one) to welcome the stranger.

Still can't really process that border patrol made the decision to leave a nearly-blind refugee outside a donut shop five miles from his house. And that he then (as could have easily been imagined) died. And that there likely won't be any accountability for this.

@ktjdzchip @rljcoelho @cla519 I can’t fathom how you jumped from this position to “Canada is a corrupt country.” Canada is a wonderful country that is trying to offer a humane alternative to egregious suffering. If your God doesn’t allow MAID, don’t ask for MAID. Let others live and die their truth.

A year ago, I analyzed MAID deaths from a report by Ontario’s Chief Coroner. Now my analysis, which includes the case of Mrs. B, is in global headlines as she received MAID the same day she was declined palliative hospice care. This is not hypothetical. people.com/husband-pushes…
