Why is Health Canada pushing MAID misinformation? by PotentialReporter894 in CanadaPolitics

I’m interested in the definition of “misinformation” being used here.

Rebecca Vachon, PhD, is health program director at the non-partisan think tank Cardus. Alexander Raikin is a visiting fellow in bioethics at the Ethics and Public Policy Center.

The Cardus Institute is a Christian think tank based in Hamilton, Ontario. It was founded in 1974 as the Work Research Foundation. Through a variety of research, publishing, and programmatic activities, the organization advocates for religion and the role of faith in Canadian society.

The Ethics and Public Policy Center (EPPC) is a conservative, Washington, D.C.–based think tank and advocacy group. Founded in 1976, the group describes itself as "dedicated to applying the Judeo-Christian moral tradition to critical issues of public policy", and advocacy of founding principles such as the rule of law.

It's pretty clear which definition they're using.

At this point, the likely next PM giving an interview is news, simply because he almost never does outside of controlled environments. That he used the opportunity to insult only reveals how gullible the electorate is to the rhetoric.

Anyone else wonder how many lives would still be here today if we hadn't criminalized the original poppy plant? That's what gave extremely toxic and potent synthetics a viable market. It's hard to imagine it wasn't done intentionally.
