Edit: More recent update on his situation after a fund raiser raised enough for him to avoid homelessness:

"The real issue isn’t whether or not someone like me should be able to access MAID. It’s whether or not we, as a society, wish to continue making people’s lives miserable and hopeless enough that suicide – assisted or otherwise – becomes a viable option. Or whether we are willing to choose to take steps that would make these people’s lives bearable enough that they won’t need to."

Edit 2: Medical assistance suicide under Capitalism and under the hands of the government is a horrible idea without any proper safeguards from abuse https://twitter.com/Lefty_Mind/status/1595443123324436481

    Things like this has happened for as long as the rulers of this world has decided to have poverty. Desperate people do desperate things, like killing themselves. What's new is how the official bureaucratic process of MAiD puts the social murder out in the open for everyone to see. It's really hard for liberals to hide this away in some statistic or do the usual superficial handwringing about mental health when the guy is standing there and telling how he would rather die than live in the world they have created for him.
