Especially when it comes to mental health.

Like I'm sure no one had actually sat down at a spreadsheet and said "ah yes, we'll simply allow people with schizophrenia to choose MAID rather than setting them up with social workers, social assistance, and healthy housing." Because all of that could go a long way to alleviating the suffering they're feeling that is leading them to consider premature death.

But it's also very affordable to healthcare system and the governments budgets overall if all these pesky social assistance seeks and recievers could just... die... and no longer be a line item on the budget or agitate for assistance.
