"I always thought legalizing euthanasia was a no-brainer. 
It always seemed to me like an individual choice people ought to have, akin to legalizing abortion or same-sex marriage. 
If someone is in such pain that they decide to end their life, I thought, who are we as a society to tell them they can’t? 
There’s also a harm reduction component. If someone is dead set on ending their lives, shouldn’t we give them a relatively safe, effective option under medical supervision? It would be cruel not to. 
This was the rationale behind the 2015 Supreme Court of Canada decision in Carter v. Canada, which determined prohibition of medical assistance in dying (MAiD) was unconstitutional. 
But the legalization of MAiD has brought to the fore some disturbing moral calculations, particularly with its expansion in 2019 to include individuals whose deaths aren’t “reasonably foreseeable,” which opened the floodgates for people with disabilities to apply to die rather than survive on meagre benefits. 
I’ve come to realize euthanasia in Canada has become the ultimate neoliberal policy — we’ll starve you of the funding you need to live a dignified life, demand you pay back pandemic aid you applied for in good faith, and if you don’t like it, well, why don’t you just kill yourself? 
The problem with my previous perspective was it held individual choices as sacrosanct. But people don’t make individual decisions in a vacuum. They’re the product of social circumstances, ones often out of their control.
Tim Stainton, director of the Canadian Institute for Inclusion and Citizenship at the University of British Columbia, told the Associated Press that Canada’s MAiD policy is “probably the biggest existential threat to disabled people since the Nazis’ program in Germany in the 1930s.”
This sounds hyperbolic, but there are endless examples of people with disabilities who were offered euthanasia rather than live a life of pain and exclusion. And with the impending expansion of MAiD to include people with mental illnesses, the problem is only going to get worse."

“Gainful Employment” Could Shut Down Good Programs—Here’s How To Fix It
“Gainful Employment” Could Shut Down Good Programs—Here’s How To Fix It
getty It has become clear that many of the colleges and universities that the federal government funds do not provide their students with a strong enough return on investment to repay their loans. Without stronger accountability for taxpayer-funded higher education, there is no hope of solving the student loan crisis for the long term. Fortunately, policymakers on both sides of the aisle are…

In today's update of Canada Loves Eugenics, 10,064 people died in 2021 through medically assisted death in Canada, and while MAID supposedly exists to allow people with severe, incurable illnesses to die with dignity on their own terms, MAID is generally used because disabled and mentally ill people cannot access governmental assistance and are living in poverty.
The Canadian government is actively pushing poor, disabled people to death.
oh and by the way, Canada performs more organ transplants from MAID donors than any other country in the world.
"Six disability rights and religious advocates told Reuters that the pace of the planned changes to the assisted death framework in Canada brings additional risks of people opting for MAID because they are unable to access social services - the lack of which could exacerbate their suffering." - source
Anyway, it's basically like this: the USA has the Americans with Disabilities Act and Canada has MAID

I wanna talk about Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) for a second.
I work in Palliative-Hospice Care. And let me tell you that there are people out there with cancer and other conditions approaching the end of their life naturally who are severely suffering, because their pain and symptoms are beyond what medicine can control. Or maybe they’re at a huge risk for a catastrophic haemorrhage and it’s known by everyone that this is the most likely, hugely traumatic way they are going to die. Whatever the case is, if someone’s prognosis is already less than six months, I am fully in favour of them being able to choose MAiD as how they want to die.
MAiD does have a place in Canada. It should be considered a medical procedure like any other.
However, when MAiD expanded to cover those not imminently dying already, that was nothing but a thinly veiled “solution” to the government not wanting to care for disabled people. So people are forced to chose MAiD as an alternative to homelessness. It’s a terrible no good very bad situation. Now it will be expanded further to cover those dealing with mental illness as their sole reasoning for request. And this will do nothing but exacerbate the issue.
When talking about the health care crisis in Canada, do not forget about MAiD and how killing off vulnerable patients is not the answer.

To those Canadians and other nationalities with medically assisted suicide: If you are suffering from chronic illness, have mental struggles, live in poverty, or whatever else is leading people to tell you MAiD is a solution, PLEASE know the following:
You ARE worthy of help and treatment, even if people aren’t making it available to you.
You do NOT deserve to be told dying is the only OR best option.
You CAN survive! We believe in you!
It’s OKAY that you struggle. Struggling does not equal failure!
Your loved ones are NOT better off without you. They love you. They would be grief-stricken without you. 
You are LOVED and WORTHY and VALUABLE.
You are made in the image of God, and Christ died to save YOU. He sees you exactly as you are, and He loves you.
I (and others) are praying for you. Please hold on. Please know you are loved.

Would any of the characters be okay if we broke up with them? Or at the very least, politely and cutely rejected them?
Nope, absolutely none of them will be okay.
In fact it’s bold of you to think that’d they’d ever let you break up with them to begin with.
ψ(`∇´)ψ
They are Yandere’s after all so here’s but a few categories of how they’d react.
1. They’d rather die (fall into depression and off themselves),
2. If they can’t have you no one will (they’d kill you),
3. They’d hold you captive (Stockholm syndrome),
4. They’d break your mind just to build you back up again (mind break),
5. They’d make you dependent on them (cripple you), 👀
Some reactions will vary from tame, moderate, or extreme in any case their darling ever brings up such blasphemy. Ultimately, It all depends on said yandere boi.
