Do not undersell yourself. This is a wonderful and thought provoking article. Your caption to the graphic is stellar.
As for the source link, VOA have taken the topic seriously. They begin with:

A law allowing limited euthanasia in Canada is set to expand to make the procedure available to people with mental illness. As Craig McCulloch reports, this is causing a variety of reactions.
--
One can only presume that the variety of reactions are coming from those with mental illnesses. There can only be one reaction.
People really fail to understand the progression of species by natural selection to social Darwinism. Its natural. Many cultures and visionaries have been advocating that instead of waiting for the infirm or sub-standard member of society to die by accident ;) or natural processes, the caring society would help. Just think what that would mean for government efficiency. No more caring for people who are going to die early anyway. Its a complete waste.
The Canadian government have employed a very capable marketing firm to come up with MAiD. I can almost see their product lineup including such gems as:
MAiD in Canada
or
MAiD 4 U
Did you produce the graphic for the immigration service? If so, you should contact the marketing agency. I'm sure they'll see the talent you obviously possess.
The key to a good marketing strategy is to have a solid foundation. Society is similar and that was the contribution of social Darwinism, to assist society in strengthening its foundations.
The whole process is MAiD 4 Canada and we social Darwinists wish them well.
Curiously interesting, yet serious business nonetheless.
Made me think of these two recent related matters.

Berman, in committee, said it clarifies a gray area in the law regarding adults with disabilities.
The 15-page bill codifies and clarifies existing common law regarding “dependent adult children” — unmarried adults who are incapable of self-support because of a disability present before age 18. Existing statutes are largely silent on who is responsible if the parents of these adult children divorce, Tant said.
“It’s been the subject of court battles for a long time,” Tant said. “We don’t have any guidelines to offer.”
That will change going forward.
Tant said the inspiration for the bill grew out of a situation involving the Miami father of a 27-year-old Down syndrome child who refused to support her. A lawsuit against the father was filed in 2019 and the circuit court dismissed the case. The court ordered the child to pay her father’s legal fees because it was determined to be a frivolous lawsuit.
An appeals court determined the lower court had erred in 2020, however.
WEST PALM BEACH — Bruised from a recent blow in federal court, attorneys for the state of Florida are warning against what they describe as an attempted “federal takeover” by the U.S. Department of Justice.
The issue stems from a fundamental disagreement over how the state treats, houses and funds the care of children with disabilities. The DOJ sued Florida in 2013 for keeping kids in nursing homes against the wishes of their parents — a handful of whom testified during a two-week bench trial in West Palm Beach last month.
State health administrators have argued since the lawsuit’s inception that the litigation is a threat to state sovereignty, but a federal judge seems poised to disagree. Moved by “horrific” stories of isolation and endless institutionalization, U.S. District Judge Donald Middlebrooks ordered attorneys on May 19 to propose remedies to Florida's problematic pediatric nursing homes.

You hit the nail into the head there my friend. Couldn't have put it better even using ChatGPT.

No matter what the question is, "we need more centralised government" is the obvious answer. 😀
