Thank you very much, Madam Chair, and thank you to the witnesses.
Dr. Herx, I want to drill down into some of the safeguards this legislation would remove, starting with the 10-day reflection period.
The letter you signed along with other physicians makes reference to the possibility of same-day death. During the debate at second reading, the government dismissed that possibility. Can you elaborate on that concern with respect to the elimination of the 10-day reflection period?
