Episode 254 Being Real about MAIDs

from The Be Real Babe Podcast · host Brandi Marie

In today’s episode, Hails & I revisit a topic that’s both controversial & driving the progression train off a cliff. Now before ANYONE comes at EITHER of us about this, please go watch the entire episode. We are not talking about Track 1… although I’d have arguments as well that that is inhumane BUT today our focus is on the progression of this “compassionate care” program. People can keep saying that it’s only those who are suffering and no cure but babes, that’s just not true. Canadians are being offered death vs Hope and I cannot in good conscience sit here and not TALK ABOUT THIS!! When we first reported on this in 2023 our concerns were the loopholes they’ll find, the pressure people are under in this economy and just the idea death is even mentioned WHEN WE ALL KNOW IT IS A CHOICE, always will be and has been, is down right diabolical and not considered appropriate bed side manner. Hails and I go over several situations in this country where those vulnerable have been offered this “service” and are no longer here or have been speaking out to share that this is IN FACT happening. We share basic information on what this program is, how it’s been used/abused & our general worries about how mental health is a baby hair away from being approved for assisted death. Now I’ll play devils advocate because your girl needs to have balanced opinions here… sound off below if you’ve witness what you believe to be compassionate care with the MAIDs program. Equally would love for other Canadians to hear when and how you were offered MAID vs treatment in your healing by journey 👇🏼Everyone is going to have their own lens here. My ask is you take it off for just today to be open to BOTH sides of the conversation. To hold compassion for your fellow brothers and sisters as like is fucking HARD. But we have empathy, compassion, love and unity to get us through ❤️ You guys know I have a thing for informed consent. To have informed consent you need all options, ideas and experiences on the table. Let 2026 be the year we strive for the most informed society we can by being open and real ❤️
