When the CBA wrote about including a longer reflection period, it was with respect to cases where patients were not nearing death. I think Bill C-7 does include a longer period for those cases where death is described as not reasonably foreseeable. Although the CBA never expressed an opinion as to a specific delay or a longer period, I think Bill C-7 echoes the comments of the CBA.
With respect to the other aspect of your question, the CBA raised the possibility that in some instances, notably when capacity is more challenging to assess for physicians, there might be cases where consultation with a psychiatrist could be justified.
Again, I think we have some concerns about making a blanket requirement for all cases to have an expert with specific expertise in the condition causing the patient's condition, while realizing again that practitioners could make a referral if they feel they need more specific advice in this regard.
