2-5 years of their lives at the end, those are the ONLY significant
demographics, as proved, and as you snipped:
https://www.ceicdata.com/en/indicator/canada/national-government-debt
Canada National Government Debt reached 1,519.8 USD bn in Mar 2024,
compared with 1,423.3 USD bn in the previous year.
In the latest reports, Canada Consolidated Fiscal Balance recorded a deficit equal to 1.8 % of its Nominal GDP in Sep 2024.
The country's Government debt accounted for 69.4 % of its Nominal GDP in Mar 2024.
Canada Nominal GDP reached 520.3 USD bn in Mar 2023.
Suffice to say the impact is barely negligible:
https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/publications/health-system-services/annual-report-medical-assistance-dying-2022.html
In 2022, there were 13,241 MAID provisions reported in Canada, accounting for 4.1% of all deaths in Canada.
The number of cases of MAID in 2022 represents a growth rate of 31.2% over 2021. All provinces except Manitoba and the Yukon continue to experience a steady year-over-year growth in 2022.
When all data sources are considered, the total number of medically
assisted deaths reported in Canada since the introduction of federal
MAID legislation in 2016 is 44,958.
The average age of individuals at the time MAID was provided in 2022
was 77.0 years. This average age is slightly higher than the averages
of 2019 (75.2), 2020 (75.3) and 2021 (76.3). The average age of females
during 2022 was 77.9, compared to males at 76.1.
The majority of MAID recipients received palliative care and disability support services
In 2022, MAID practitioners reported that the majority of MAID
recipients (77.6%) had received palliative care, a level similar to the
three previous years. Of those who received palliative care, 49.9%
received it for a month or more, similar to the level reported in 2021.
Of the MAID recipients who did not receive palliative care (19.6%),
87.5% had access to these services.
https://www.cpp.ca/blog/what-is-the-life-expectancy-in-canada/
The latest report from Statistics Canada released in 2020, found that
the average life expectancy in Canada is 79.49 years for men and 83.9
years for women.
So what you have is:
@ roughly 2 years shaved off a female lifespan
@roughly 5 years shaved off a male lifespan
@continued palliative care spending regardless
Which means that you've fronted for broad scale enable euthanasia with
no apparent significant cost savings at all.
This is a witless rehash of where the world was circa early 1900s when
the eugenicists decided we could save some money by getting rid of the
disabled and mentally ill.
You're a demented piece of Canuck shit for shilling this out and as a
result YOU must demonstrate YOUR loyalty to "MAID" by KILLING YOURSELF
NOW~!
