Moving to Canada? (Updated)

/

341 Sound Beach Avenue, listed last week at $2.8 million is reported pending today. The owner’s been vocal lately, expressing her terror at what Trump’s doing to our freedom, so I imagine there’ll be a quick closing to allow her escape to the north.

I mentioned last week that there wasn’t much, if anything that betrayed its original construction date of 1875, but I don’t suppose that matters, especially if this is going for land.

Update: Well, maybe not Canada; Venezuela?

This Canadian Man Is Poor, So the Government Offered to Kill Him. Here's What Happened.

…. [L]et’s revisit an old 2022 story about then-54-year-old Amir Farsoud, who was going through the process of government-sponsored suicide. 

Farsoud suffers from crippling back pain and couldn’t find a new place to live when his rooming house at the time was up for sale. He couldn’t afford any place to live and barely got by on the $1,200 disability payments he received in Ontario. He wouldn’t make it on the streets, and knowing that, opted to apply for Medical Assistance in Dying (MAIDS). He fit the criteria, but his doctor knew the real reason why Farsoud was applying for MAIDS. He signed off anyway.  

….Luckily, a 2024 fundraiser helped Farsoud get a new place to live and opt out of MAIDS.  

In essence, the Canadian government told a poor man that death is an option and that we’re here for you since you can’t find a new home. Farsoud said that he doesn’t want to be dead.

And forced euthanasia isn’t the only thing to fear in America’s Snow Hat:

To be fair, though, if one can get over the death thing, there’s a lot for a liberal to love up on the tundra.
