We have Jennifer Gibson, who is appearing as an individual and who is director and Sun Life Financial chair in bioethics at the University of Toronto's Joint Centre for Bioethics.
Welcome.
We have Mr. Josh Paterson, who is the executive director of the B.C. Civil Liberties Organization.
Welcome.
Since I didn't have a chance to talk to Dr. Chochinov, as he is on video conference, let me say that the way it will work, sir, is that we have eight-minute statements by each member of the panel. We would very much appreciate your sticking to the bill itself and your proposed amendments to the bill.
Afterwards there will be questions from members of the committee for each of you. I look forward to all of your testimony.
We always start with the witness who is on video conference, so we're going to start with Dr. Chochinov.
