Skills required: Advising Governance HR Management Leading Organizing Planning Project Management Strategic Planning Supervising Volunteer Engagement Work remotely Head of Operations (remote) Ongoing HEAD OF OPERATIONS (VOLUNTEER) Organization: Right to Live Canada Location: Remote (Canada-wide) Time Commitment: 15+ hours per week (Flexible) THE MISSION Canada is currently facing a human rights crisis of international consequence: poverty-driven disability euthanasia (MAiD). Individuals, blocked by state‑enforced poverty, are choosing to end their lives with state assistance due to being unable to access essentials such as medical procedures, supportive housing, or even food. This systemic failure has triggered a United Nations investigation, criticism from the Canadian Human Rights Commission, and global condemnation. Right to Live Canada is engineering the only viable, system‑level alternative to this crisis – Social Brokerage. By creating a pipeline between sources of raw capital and specific one‑time support plans ("Stability Mandates") for individuals in the process of applying for MAiD, the organization creates the "viable alternative" that the system itself mandates its assessors to find but does not currently provide. This represents the world's first market‑based solution to poverty‑driven euthanasia and the creation of a social impact credit system which exchanges philanthropic capital for verified, life‑affirming outcomes, akin to carbon credits. Right to Live Canada is currently pre‑pilot.
