Mr. Chair, I'd like to share my time with the honourable Ms. Harder, please.
First of all, I have to applaud you, Mr. Nicholson, for your work on this bill. It's a fantastic bill. I applaud you too, Mr. Oliphant, for supporting the bill.
I think it's something that has to be done. My grandfather had Parkinson's as well, and I know how hard it was for him to go through nine long years in long-term care.
I know both of you have likely seen the proposed amendments to this bill. I assume you have. Mr. Oliphant, you just talked a little about one portion of it.
I'd like to know Mr. Nicholson's thoughts on the proposed amendments and perhaps he will share with us any concern he has there. Likewise, Mr. Oliphant, could you share your thoughts on the proposed amendments to this bill?
