How many tattoos yall got? And which is your fave and why? This is my fave. It’s a portrait of my son Aidan before he passed away from childhood cancer. When I took the photo I asked him what he thought about cancer and the finger was his response! It became a pretty viral pic amongst the cancer community.

@dwrightman Anyone can recommend anything, doesn’t make it happen.

@Reil76 Parliamentary committee has recommended expansion of MAID to minors. globalnews.ca/news/9491605/m…

Let’s clear something up about MAID in Canada. It does not apply to children. You must be 18 or older. Mature minors do not qualify. Full stop. It does not apply to people simply because they are poor or struggling. To be eligible, you must have a serious and incurable illness, disease or disability, be in an advanced state of irreversible decline, and be experiencing intolerable suffering that cannot be relieved in any way you find acceptable. Financial hardship alone is not a criterion. It is not a rubber stamp. Approval requires assessments by two independent practitioners who review your medical records and confirm you have seriously considered available treatment options. When death is not reasonably foreseeable, a minimum 90-day assessment period is required. People whose only medical condition is a mental illness are not currently eligible either, that eligibility has been postponed to March 2027 while further safeguards are studied. You can have moral or religious objections to assisted dying. That is a legitimate position held by a lot of Canadians. But spreading misinformation about what the law actually says is not an argument. It is just fearmongering. Know wtf you are talking about before you talk about it.

@HawkECanada @LauraBabcock I haven’t watched any podcasts/shows!

@Reil76 @LauraBabcock Even Laura's own like-minded dipshits don't watch her absolute trash.

Albertans don’t have this much beef with the rest of Canada. These MAGA style grievance politics are meant to keep an angry base angry and keep UPC in power. It’s shameful and destructive to Alberta and 🇨🇦 We discuss on OShow youtu.be/cFSLUzlCmXw?si… #cndpoli #ableg #ABpoli #CAN

@KayneVexx Not remotely the same thing

@Reil76 That’s like supporting capital punishment and saying so a few innocent people are going to get executed but oh well.

@VolmanBen And they should have that, I don’t disagree.

@Reil76 Give Albertans the same level of representation in the federation as the eastern Canadians. As long as Alberta is treated as a colony you will hear about it.

Carney is moving ahead on a new pipeline to get Canadian oil to global markets, something Alberta has been demanding for years. And yet, Alberta is STILL complaining. First it was “we need pipelines.” Now it’s “not this one,” “not fast enough,” or “not good enough.” At some point it stops being about pipelines and starts looking like a province that just wants to be perpetually mad no matter what happens.

@Fidjibou They only read what they wanna. And comprehend even less.

@Reil76 Ce n’est pas ce que l’on lit pourtant …

@scottwolf14 @JoshAnimator And those pamphlets; The pamphlet was created by the Evangelical Fellowship of Canada (EFC) – a national evangelical advocacy organization that has been providing a voice for “biblical principles in life and society” since 1964.

@Reil76 @JoshAnimator Then how do you explain this? I've heard from various other Canadians about similar pamphlets being spotted in a handful of other provinces.

@nunya_beeeez @Cephas_Badger I can’t stand it, and I will do everything I can to fight back against it!!

@Reil76 @Cephas_Badger My dad chose it. Interesting process for sure. He didn't get to the point of using it as he passed before he could give his time. The misinformation passed around by these loonies drives me crazy. They have no idea

@NicD903 They won’t

@Reil76 They will all qualify in 2027

@turbine98 I hear you!

@Reil76 It was over 40 years ago and I still think about it often.

@MikeAHam Exactly!!

@Reil76 If someone wants to kill themselves it is going to happen, not a thing you decide on a whim.

@Dave75350297 @Mags00021130 Thanks Dave. And you’re absolutely correct!

@Reil76 @Mags00021130 You have accurately explained the legislation as it applies to MAID. You are absolutely correct when you say spreading misinformation about MAID is a shitty thing to do. Even so, the hateful right wing knuckle draggers won’t be swayed because they are assholes.

@JenJeepers Yes it does.

@Reil76 Yeah, that comes from both sides though.

@NeighbourY25934 @sherlockeditor My pleasure!

@Reil76 @sherlockeditor Thank you for posting facts here. ✌🏼🇨🇦

@Antification Yup just a different name

@Reil76 Maid like services are also available in 14 states

@Jenniferl554563 @tlar @Celtics333333 And if a referendum happens it’ll only get worse.

@Reil76 @tlar @Celtics333333 I’ve noticed a lot posts on MAID and Canadian healthcare in general from US Ian’s on threads.

@dwrightman That is not the plan

@Reil76 The plan is to expand MAID to minors and mental health. When/if this expansion happens there will be cases where MAID is administered to minors with psychiatric disorders without the parents being notified which is going to lead to social unrest.

@SherylFallon4 @bethanybelton True story!

@Reil76 @bethanybelton They don’t want facts. They’d rather live in their own stupidity.

@igobystephyo They absolutely should have!

@Reil76 Yeah but the lady in Saskatchewan with the thyroid issue? Come on. Can't they just send her somewhere in Canada with an endocrinologist instead of approving MAID?

@JoshAnimator @scottwolf14 He hasn’t. Neither have you.

@Reil76 @scottwolf14 yes he has. I have too. Stop lying you fucking bootlicker.
