Well it’s mostly that at least a certain group with disabilities has access to a way out when life is too harsh. It is to limit unneeded suffering. A respectful way to end one’s life should be available to everyone, but that is a hard pill to swallow for many neurotypical / religious people. So it gets limited to a certain group, and then they use that compromise as an argument…
You don’t decide whether you are born, at least let us have more control over our own death. In a progression of our human civilization, this should count for everyone.
Framing this in a bad way is exactly what some conservative politicians and media want.
You really need to look into how MAID is being used and who it’s being pushed on. To call it a “Assisted Dying” program is blatantly ignoring the harsh ways Canada abuses it and pushes it onto the poor especially.
True, the whole “Kill the poor and pretend its medicine.” thing though… that’s much worse.
No really they made a whole commercial trying to glamorize it and everything.

Edit: Even the group that called for MAID to begin with thinks it’s being abused - https://www.yahoo.com/news/assisted-dying-abused-canada-admits-222218423.html
