I suspect the author has an agenda and a slant, given the read of his twitter account and some of the slippery logic he's using in this article.

The problem of the Canadian state offering to kill people who've lost their welfare benefits is something I know independently from this article. The larger question should be discussed rather than this particular article's slant speculated on.
