"The Atikamekw mother of seven died soon after she filmed herself from her hospital bed last Monday while she was in clear distress and pleading for help. Toward the end of the video, which was streamed live, two female hospital staff enter her room and are heard making degrading comments, including calling her stupid and saying she'd be better off dead."

I always wondered how human beings like the two female hospital employees in this case can sleep at night.
I'm affraid they don't care and fall asleep with a smile on their face.
I hope her family will be able to cope.

This story was really a shock, I mean I know there's bad people out there but just what motivated their choice there... somehow when I heard it was in Quebec it made a little more sense, but still. Indefensible

...is it bad to say "I know what you mean"? I dunno, there just seems to be a lot of jerks in Quebec for wahtever reason. In general I'd blame their overdeveloped sense of "nationalism" but that's another discussion.
I've more-or-less concluded that nurses are basically Cops Lite: they're there to help and they're heroes doing what most of us wouldn't want to...until they aren't, then they're the evil bastards who have too much sway over human life and death without enough accountability. Stories like this are some kind of horrorshow shit and they need to be held accountable.

They probably killed her. 
I think a lot of old people get taken out by evil witches working in the medical field.

Quebec does have a bit of a reputation for racism and traditionalism. Of course there's racists all over, and I'm sure similarly horrible things have gone unreported, which is really a downer to contemplate
not necessarily related, but it seems like Quebec has more anti-maskers too all in all, not helping my pre-existing bias

Empathy drain, is that the term? Anyways, people in these positions, such as nurses, find themselves out of empathy after a while.
