The current upper estimate of all incidents of all kinds is 25 per year. The term "wellness check" first appears in 2012 and is cited three times. Once in 2012, once in 2020 and once in 2021. One of these (2020) was an officer defending himself against a knife attack. One (2021) was allegedly at the door in response to a report of a female forcibly detained (later claimed by community members to have been a request for a "wellness check"). All three were indigenous, no blacks. No disabled (other than assumed mental illness).<br /><br />My point is not that nothing of the kind ever happened. I just don't accept that phrases like the one quoted can be rationally justified by 3 occurrences in ten years. ("Disabled people, especially those who are Indigenous or Black, are killed by police conducting “wellness checks.”)<br /><br />Considering the 2016 census of 1.7 million aboriginals in Canada, the statistical probability of this happening to anyone in particular is roughly 1.8 in one million.<br /><br />Not the sort of risk that should keep you awake at night.<br /><br />Again: Euthanasia is clearly a serious discriminatory danger to the disabled. Bringing in other wild claims does nothing to help make that fact more widely understood.<br /><br />https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_killings_by_law_enforcement_officers_in_Canadagordon friesenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14093992667966373256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9216787076261944467.post-61953518004138162952022-06-21T14:01:21.429-04:002022-06-21T14:01:21.429-04:00Then explain why so many blacks, indigenous and th...Then explain why so many blacks, indigenous and those with schizophrenia are shot and killed during wellness checks, or die during observation? I would like to see a study done that would publish the numbers over the past decade.sunnywithrainnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9216787076261944467.post-86870141840485228892022-06-17T20:46:34.208-04:002022-06-17T20:46:34.208-04:00It is unfortunate that many excellent points conce...It is unfortunate that many excellent points concerning euthanasia are muddled up with nonsense such as the following:<br /><br />"Disabled people, especially those who are Indigenous or Black, are killed by police conducting “wellness checks.”<br /><br />Such outrageously inflated claims do nothing to advance serious debate on a serious subject.gordon friesenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14093992667966373256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9216787076261944467.post-32560769904643739802022-06-17T15:37:56.761-04:002022-06-17T15:37:56.761-04:00I agree.

That is a lie so they can starve the elderly!
