@thedandeliongrove @quasar from kkklanada’s MAID webpage:

To be eligible for medical assistance in dying, you must meet all the following criteria. You must:

  • be eligible for health services funded by a province or territory, or the federal government
  • be at least 18 years old and mentally competent*
  • *This means being capable of making health care decisions for yourself.
  • have a grievous and irremediable medical condition
  • make a voluntary request for medical assistance in dying*
  • *The request cannot be the result of outside pressure or influence.
  • give informed consent to receive medical assistance in dying

Generally, visitors to Canada are not eligible for medical assistance in dying.

@thedandeliongrove @quasar i feel there's a good chance they'll keep getting delayed, since there's been a lot of pushback against MAID in parliament. but when/if it does go into effect yeah it would be grim

@meadow @quasar yeh def feels like enough garnered outrage in general because like… yeah holy fuck that’s so scummy on every level.

Hoping it won’t end up in a battle of attrition tho… like just waiting until lawmakers/the public get tired of it or some other bullshit

Ofc also yeah… a yank… *fweeeebleugh*
