The only answer is conquer the corporations and eat the rich.

Sail the high seas and never see an ad again. Make your time your own.

Good. They should be questioning harder. As someone who is disabled and in this vulnerable group my question is this. If the Government wants me to exist why am I expected to live on less than $12000/year? That's less than half of extreme poverty for a single person in my province. Yet this is my sole income.

I am not permitted, even if I could, to work or volunteer for more than 10h/week or make more than $6900/year or I lose my CPP. I do not qualify for the disability tax credit because I am not disabled in the correct way yet I am deemed unfit for work by multiple doctors and the CPP office due to physical disability from cancer. I have 3 elementary aged kids and worked from age 14 to 18 part time and 18 to 42 full time when I got really sick and became disabled. I paid taxes and saved money. I spent our life savings surviving cancer 400kms from my home at the nearest hospital that could treat me and spent a small amount building a massive garden and greenhouse on land donated to us by family.

I served my fellow man as a paramedic for 15 years as well as other positions in different fields. Those afforded me no "pension" because paramedicine is a highly skilled yet low paying job with little to no benefits at my time of employment. I pay everything out of pocket because I do not have medical, dental or eye care coverage. I grow as much food as I can so my kids don't starve because I can't afford to buy it. I ignore my own health to keep them fed and housed. If I am "caught" or turned in for doing physical work at home regardless of my health I will likely lose my CPP. I have to do it though, I have no choice. If we hadn't been literally given this house we would be homeless. If we didn't raise food we would be very hungry. If we didn't have family supporting us I'm not sure where we would be but we would certainly be a larger demand on the system than we are now.

Yet I can qualify for MAID easily.

They want us dead.

Question it.

If my pets are any indicator of attempting this with animals they'll gobble up the meal and leave the medication on the ground.

Hey fellow ignorer. Mine was a spinal tumor.

My kid said just the other day. "they should have an average person do it first so we could see the difference."

Pretty tough when you're in a wheelchair.

I've got a 118 and I'm pretty sure I'm almost a cult leader now.

I've been following some of these folks on social media who do this every couple of weeks. It's crazy. The police were arresting them for giving away food. So they went through the courts and won the right to feed homeless people. Crazy right. The even crazier part is the cops sit across the street every single time they give out free food and hygiene items and harass them, take photos and other ACAB sort of shit. 4-6 cruisers at a time. Insane.
