Extremely vague, the statute allows patients to be detained indefinitely against their will, with nothing more than a subjective behavioural analysis. Such a tool is subject to abuse, and should should be used to a great degree of responsibility.

It's power is similar to that of the Security Certificates used to indefinitely detain suspects of terrorism without releasing evidence or allowing the accused legal council.

I have a long work history, but did not work enough quarters prior to my stroke in 1993. I was at work when I had the stroke. My family has really suffered. The laws need to be changed, updated. I was asked to resign my position as an educational asisstant.

We deserve to be able to live too. I should not be told that i can't rent any part of my home by anyone. That if i do i would loose that money from my check. Or that i would have to pay all that Social Security paid me back if i won the lottery.

Even something as simple as saving for a car, a child's education, maybe a dining room table.. People that are on disability don't work because they CAN'T.. Those in need of the system they should be encouraged to save what little extra they get towards something that helps make their future as a disabled more goal oriented and happy.

My mother is a cancer survivor, and I have seen with her have to fight with disability far too often. She has to live so frugally that without the help of her friends and family, its amazing she has enough money to have food on her plate by the time she is done paying rent/heat/hydro. Our gov't should be ashamed of the way these people are treated. Give them the chance to live with their illnesses with less stress.
