What alarming statistics are presented about assisted dying in Canada?
By the end of this calendar year of 2026, we're gonna get 110,000 people we've killed. It's eugenics. It's a eugenics program where you basically get rid of all the difficult eaters, all of the mentally disabled, all of the vulnerable, all of the people that are a burden on the system. We have doctors who have killed over 1,000 people in our country who are making over $860,000 killing over 1,000 people. That's not an incentive? You're out of your mind. I decided to call said funeral home, and I made a video about it.
How is assisted dying related to eugenics and societal burdens?
This took a total of two minutes for me to organize a killing in a funeral home. I can order pizza at the same time I just ordered that. You have significant amount of cases that need to be addressed where individuals are being coerced by their loved ones. He planned for a maid death for her. She did not want it. The police had to step in. So this is what I'm saying.
There's kind of a word for that, right?
We call it coercion and murder.
Kelsey Shirin, welcome back to Trigonometry.
Hi, guys.
It's good to have you on. You're here for a third time now. Last time, we had a conversation about MAID, which is assisted dying, basically.
Kind of.
We'll argue about it later. Okay. But that conversation... got huge views because I think it's something that a lot of people are really thinking about.
What are the financial incentives behind the practice of MAID?
And what we talked about it then in the context of Canada, but what I think we've actually seen since then is that this is moving to other parts of the world in America, in the UK, assisted dying has been a big conversation. So just let's reset and tell the story from the beginning. What is happening with assisted dying around the world now?
Okay, so we have to start changing the verbiage around what this is, because when you start to... What's a great word for this? When you start to soften language and you start to say what it is, when you use the word termade, it sounds very fluffy and very light and very peaceful and, you know, all of the dying with dignity. It's not. It's none of that. It's eugenics. It's a eugenics program.
And there's a... But define eugenics?
I mean, great question. There's a technical term, and then there's the terminology where you basically get rid of all the difficult eaters, all of the mentally disabled, all of the vulnerable, all of the people that are a burden on the system. That's just a really plain-based way to put it. when you cost the government a lot of money, when you cost society a lot of money, when you're basically not an everyday well-rounded person, somebody with ALS, somebody with Down syndrome, somebody with spinal bifida, somebody who's a quadriplegic like a friend of mine in a wheelchair, a friend of mine who has a degenerative disorder gets offered mate every day, he's in a hospital. So it's less about what does the UN call it and what does it actually mean for a society?
So your claim is these programs are designed to weed out and kill people who are inconvenient to the government, to society, because they consume too many resources.
Absolutely. And they're just not what society wants as a whole because they become a burden.
Right.
Think of World War I. It was veterans. It was shell shock veterans. It was the women that were difficult. So people like me definitely would have been lobotomized for sure. And then you have the children that were born with some form of ailment, right? And if you take a look at the way that Canada has been discussing it, and we'll go back to what your question is, is that even the College of Physicians is suggesting zero to one, we should be able to euthanize for things like Down syndrome, for things that are born with a malformality that are going to cause... A lifelong of suffering, even though we don't know that to be true because they can't consent, they have no free will, and they're zero to one years old.
How does language influence perceptions of assisted dying?
So we're already suggesting that. That's very, very open topic. It's been in the media now for the past few weeks. The subject has exploded in the past couple months, thank God. So essentially what has happened since we spoke and prior to when we spoke is Canada has been not the first ones to do this.
