Thank you.
As I am getting older, I am very concerned about these issues.
I am in no way questioning the quality of your research; it is very interesting.
You spoke about seven provinces. Which three are not taking part?
Do people, even researchers, have different attitudes toward these problems? It's a question of attitude. The programs are perfect, intellectually, but are we really trying to respect the wishes of patients? There is also what the family wants, but what the patients want is a priority.
I'm from Quebec. Contrary to what Mrs. Sellah said, when my father was sick, his doctor, who was a woman, asked him what his wishes were should he have a heart attack. The next morning, he warned me that she had written in his report that he wanted nothing done. That was because my father, who was all there mentally at 90 years of age, had made that decision. No one even consulted me. I greatly appreciated that attitude. I think it is important.
In your programs, do you place importance on respecting people's freedom?
Also, why are three provinces not participating in your program, which is federal?
