This amendment comes out of the fact that my grandparents are from the Netherlands. They're elderly, so their friends tend to be elderly. They have a significant concern that if they go to the hospital, they will be euthanized, so they tend to steer clear of the hospital.
One of the other things is this. I go to church with a number of folks who are convinced that their grandmother was euthanized against her will. Had there been some sort of video recording that showed the time at which she gave her consent, that might have alleviated some of their concerns.

We're now going to vote on amendment CPC-17.
(Amendment negatived [See Minutes of Proceedings])
Mr. Falk, I think amendment CPC-17.1 is the same as the one about nurse practitioners.
Ladies and gentlemen, I've been advised that we're now at 8:30, which apparently tonight is a “heart-stop”.
Ms. May, you are next, with amendment PV-5. Would it make your life easier if we were to deal with your amendment now as opposed to making you come back tomorrow?

Green
Elizabeth May Green Saanich—Gulf Islands, BC
If it facilitated your effort to get through the bill, we could do my amendment now, if you wish. But I think people really want to leave. I'm in your hands and I'll be here either way.

No, not at all.
Thank you, everyone, for your co-operation.
The meeting is adjourned.
