We are ready to resume, colleagues.
I have just a few comments for the benefit of our new witnesses.
Before speaking, please wait until I recognize you by name. All comments should be addressed through the joint chairs. When speaking, please speak slowly and clearly. Interpretation in this video conference will work like at an in-person committee meeting. You have the choice, at the bottom of your screen, of floor, English or French. When you are not speaking, please keep your microphone on mute.
We'd now like to welcome both of the witnesses on our second panel, who are also here to discuss MAID when a mental disorder is the sole underlying medical condition. They are, as individuals, Ms. Justine Dembo and Dr. Natalie Le Sage, physician, clinical researcher and MAID provider.
Thank you, both, for joining us this morning.
We will have your testimonies of five minutes each—first Ms. Dembo, followed by Dr. Le Sage—and then we will go into our first round of questions.
Ms. Dembo, the floor is yours for five minutes.
