First of all, thank you to all of our witnesses.
My question is for Mr. Shannon.
In your testimony you said that paragraph 241.2(1)(c) states that a grievous and irremediably medical condition will make a person eligible for MAID. You said, “Canadian human rights legislation and the Supreme Court state that physical and mental conditions are personal effects to be protected from human rights abuses in a manner no different from race, sex, gender, religion and many other grounds of discrimination.”
I would like you to elaborate further on this point that you made during your testimony.
