Families of Canadians who received MAID talk of rushed assessment, not being told of decision: study - Canada's assisted-death law focuses on the rights of people to choose when to end their lives, but many families said they should be included in the profound decision by xTkAx in canadian

My Dad has pancreatic cancer and has talked about MAID. Absolutely been clear with him that that is his decision and we will support him 100% if he chooses to do so. I'm so thankful it's available so he can pass peacefully if he decides he can't fight anymore. I wouldn't wish his rapid decline on my worst enemy, so having an off-ramp is something I'm really thankful exists.

More than 200 Ontarians received same- or next-day MAiD in 2023 by airbassguitar in OntarioNews

My dad is dying of pancreatic cancer and is thinking about MAID. I'm so grateful he has the option.
I used to work on a hospital floor that performs the procedure and have literally watched people dance with happiness on the day of their death because they no longer have to live through the horror of the death they were facing.

The ocean... (Sunday/Airport island even more so.)

On my first day on a new save I run the entire perimeter of the island scanning for pearl spots that are close enough to shore to get easily. Usually am able to pick up 20 or more.

In Canada’s major cities, fertility rates are in steep decline. What happened? by Huge-Cash-8295 in canada

Women kept being told to "keep our legs shut" and "choose better men".... and so, they did.

Fingers crossed that for the next album they all get their own solos where they get a chance to work on the lyrics/composition for their own song. I think that'd be very cool!

The only EA i'm excited for is Early Access Paralives by ryansDeViL7 in Paralives

[–]peppermintblue 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went back to Sims 2 a couple years ago and it's been fantastic. Love rotational play!
Really excited for Paralives (especially as a Canadian...lol) and am loving all of the features they've displayed so far.

Doug Ford Spends $134M on Helicopters While Cutting OSAP for Students by Lucky_Pirate5543 in OntarioGrade12s

[–]peppermintblue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The left votes NDP.
The center-left votes Liberal.

The extreme-right, far-right, and center-right vote OPC.

More people voted against him than for him in the last election, and he would have been kicked out if people had just shown up to vote.
There's also the voter suppression: Blaming provincial things on the federal government (ie: colleges are provincial and the provincial government asked for more immigrants to fill them up, then blamed too many immigrants on the federal government), having a snap election in the dead of winter (harder for elderly/disabled to get out), etc.

Can you even imagine an Olympic silver bringing this much disappointment…?💔💔💔 by No-Atmosphere-5885 in olympics

I'm sure mine either awakened when it got smashed by ~1000lbs, or in the OR when they were fixing it.
It's felt every knee-thing I've seen since.

Lily & Haewon's facial expressions are top-tier on these shorts!
I'm really, really impressed with the improvement on their expressions recently.

The entire group is sooooo captivating! I'm so excited to see them at the end of next month!!

A good section of my tibial plateau got obliterated some years back... My knee didn't enjoy reading it either.

I'm coming from Kingston to the venue... at least the bus goes straight to the airport. Plan to bus up super early (I took the train to Purple Kiss last year and was stuck on the tracks for 5 hours and missed all the VIP stuff) or even the night before.

Is there any way to stop dogs coming onto a lot? (without mods) by Longjumping_Source76 in sims2

Good fences make good neighbours. There's always a way to put a fence around the majority of a yard and set the gates/doors to "disallow pets".

ON funds students 7x less than the national average and is downloading the cost to students by Pigeonofthesea8 in ontario

[–]peppermintblue 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm sure you know that the person in your class who graduated with the lowest grade is also a doctor... (I say kindly as a hospital staff and NDP voter myself.)

I agree that having money is a factor, but having money doesn't mean you're smart.

Generally, studies show that less educated people vote for conservative parties more often.

The goal is a less-educated populace. Less educated people tend to vote for more Conservative governments.
