The issue, just so you're aware, with that amendment is that there's federal and there's provincial and territorial, so implementation of a palliative care program is absolutely provincial-territorial responsibility. The role federally would be to work to make sure there's a framework put in place to have definitions around it, but implementation or operationalizing is territorial-provincial territory. I'll just provide you that feedback.
The preamble of the bill doesn't talk broadly about the benefits of palliative care and why we need it. Much of your presentations were around the significant shortfalls we have. It is more couched against this: since we now have physician-assisted dying, we need to have a full palliative care program around it. Personally, I would like to have seen a broader endorsement of palliative care, not because we have PAD or MAID, but because we need this regardless.
Did you read through the preamble? Did you have any thoughts on that?
