The comment to which I am responding was that one could imagine why someone might alter a file. Is that fair?
The last thing I want to say is this, and it is more in the form of a question to you, Mr. Chair, the clerk or Mr. Richards.
A motion was adopted by this committee to have the veteran known as “Bruce” come before the committee before December 14 and be allowed to testify in public in a manner that protected his identity. Could someone inform us of the status of that request, now that we are almost at December 14?
Christine Gauthier testified that she was offered medical assistance in dying in writing by Veterans Affairs. Mr. Richards asked that the letter be produced. Has it been produced?
Ms. Gauthier also indicated that she had complained about this in writing to the Prime Minister and to the Minister of Veterans Affairs. Have we asked for and have we received those things?
This is all consistent with, to quote Mr. Richards, trying to stick to the facts and what's before the committee.
I'll be supporting the motion, but I think the justification for the motion, as elucidated by Mr. Richards, contains a lot of things that shouldn't go unchallenged. That's the sole purpose of my intervention. I'll still be voting for the motion.
Thank you.
