Thank you, Chair, and thank you to all our witnesses for helping us with this study. It's very much appreciated.
My first question is for Mr. Rahim.
Thank you for your thoughtful presentation. Also, I appreciated your sharing with us that you are an individual who suffers from a mental disorder. That gives you a perspective that many others may not have.
In the study of logic, there is something called an ecological fallacy, which is defined as the situation in which an individual who is a member of a group can be deduced by the criteria shared by the group they belong to. Thus, decisions made on the basis of group membership are fraught with challenge and problems, so a case-by-case basis is the way to deal with that ecological fallacy.
Do I understand you correctly that in Canadian jurisprudence, the courts have directed us to address MAID on a case-by-case basis?
