Re: #BillC7 & why disabled people are rightfully fearful of it.

The message I want people to understand is that disabled people aren't angry about the autonomy of assisted death, we are angry that instead of choosing to help those without a foreseeable death, their 1st form of –
recourse is death.

Some may say "well, there still is a choice, they aren't forcing it" but here is the reality:

When you are disabled and do not have the means to take care of yourself, the government gives you two options: forced poverty, which is barely living because we –
can't even afford the treatments we need & our basic necessities; or death.

They could have accomplished this Bill after* they released a form of help to make disabled lives livable. Instead they give us a death option and the reality they put us in shoves us toward it. #BillC7
