Very simply, this amendment would provide conscience protections for medical health professionals, as well as health institutions. It is important that everyone's charter rights are respected and not only the charter rights of patients who have the right to access physician-assisted dying, but also the charter rights of health professionals with freedom of conscience and freedom of religion. These rights, under section 2 of the charter, are not just any charter rights; they are fundamental freedoms. I think there is certainly a need for consistency, and that would be what this amendment would provide.
It is analogous to legislation that is already on the books, and that is section 3.1 of the Civil Marriage Act.
