Fucking Canada is out of control. Here in the US if you tell them you wanna neck yourself they put you in crazy jail -- Apparently now in Canada they say "Oh lets help you with that" -- And now you can kill yourself there, with their assistance (MAID program) even if your only problem is feeling depressed or sad. Fucking crazy place. And remember kids, Canada is not a game, if you die in Canada you die in real life.

I have mixed feelings about this. In some ways I think it is survival of the fittest and who is the government to stand in the way? Strong government policies keeping people alive that otherwise shouldn't be (like in the US there are so many safety rules the dumb don't kill themselves as much because businesses must keep things safe for very low IQ morons) have weakened the species. Same if you have poor mental health, maybe it is better you don't reproduce and just get out of the way. The religion in me though, each life has worth, and with assistance that troubled person can probably be saved and contribute to society in some way.
