Given potential disease, exposure from the elements, lack of food, I'd argue it's not easy at all to not die without modern comforts.

Sounds like we need to change that system then.

That is a concern, but your argument is basically every business is going to be greedy no matter what. Pretty bleak outlook of the human condition.

O...k... And? Anyone can make a documentary and anyone can say stuff. I'm very confused as to how this is proof.

No... I'm pretty sure the point was that Canada is still doing something right.

No, it's not good at all. This leads to and has led to women being jailed for natural miscarriages or charged with endangering a fetus for taking prescribed medication or for eating everyday things like sushi and lunch meat. You may think I'm making a slippery slope argument. I'm not. This things have really happened. Women were charged with manslaughter for expressing a possibility of having an abortion, keeping the pregnancy, falling down the stairs, and having a miscarriage. The moment you criminalize a woman's actions during pregnancy that relate to a fetus is the moment any action that could have any possible negative outcome is suspect. Suddenly women who have had miscarriages are all crime scenes unless proven otherwise. It's not a slippery slope. Women have and are being jailed for having miscarriages.

So you're a forced birther. Got it.

But only if you say you love Jesus forever and will follow the church.

I disagree whole heartedly. Criminalizing things like using drugs during pregnancy leads to criminalizing miscarriages for natural reasons which has absolutely happened. There's not a ton of cases, but women have gone to jail for having a miscarriage after saying they wanted an abortion based on the idea that they must have killed their fetus.

Who could have known ahead of time that would happen?

No, they're not just asking questions. They're also making statements and seemingly implying that only people who fully transition are transgender and every trans person must also identify as male or female because non-binary is a "fad" that people made up and doesn't really exist.

You really truly think that it would stop with drug users? How naive can you be?
