Most of them are comedic, like Wodehouse&#8217;s &#8220;handing in his dinner pail&#8221;. You know the serious ones: expedited, eliminated, liquidated, liberated (from <em>Real Genius<\/em>), handled, disappeared, etc.<\/p>\n<p>So you can imagine how thrilled I was to discover a new one, invented by Canadian doctors: <em>provisioned<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>You are <em>provisioned<\/em> when a doctor slips you the needle or some pills, on purpose, to send you instantly to your Particular Judgment. (The doctors will get theirs at later dates, and boy wouldn&#8217;t you like to be, as they say, a fly on the cloud for those.)<\/p>\n<p>Doctors \u2014 white-coated physician killers, we can call them <em>R<sub>x<\/sub>ecutioners<\/em> \u2014 are increasingly enjoying collecting paychecks to kill Canadians.<\/p>\n<p>According to the official &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.canada.ca\/en\/health-canada\/services\/publications\/health-system-services\/annual-report-medical-assistance-dying-2024.html\" target=\"_blank\">Sixth Annual Report on Medical Assistance in Dying in Canada<\/a>&#8220;, 16,499 ex-Canadians were produced, or rather provisioned, in 2024. Some 22,535 applied, but 4,017 of them cheated their R<sub>x<\/sub>ecutioner by dying early. Can you picture the dejected look on the killer-doctor&#8217;s face, his needle poised, poisoned and dripping, only to find his customer left without him? Sad.<\/p>\n<p>These numbers were up from 2023, but the rate of growth of killings (provisionings) has slowed; it was 6.9% from 2023 to 2024. If that deceleration stays about the same, R<sub>x<\/sub>ecutioners will put some 17,500 under in 2025. And slightly more than that in 2026.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The vast majority (95.6%),&#8221; of those slaughtered, &#8220;identified as Caucasian (White)&#8221;. R<sub>x<\/sub>ecutioner provisionings are the one area where Canadian rulers allow Whites to excel. Incidentally, what&#8217;s with &#8220;identified&#8221;? Maybe Canadian rulers will let people identify as different races.<\/p>\n<p>But never mind all that. The report is a wonderful, almost pristine, example of pure Expertism, the perfect blend of scientism and bright red euphemism.
