Thank you for that.
I'm trying to get my head around this issue of discrimination against the right to MAID, or discrimination against the right to proper medical treatment.
Dr. Gupta, you said the federal government had stepped up above and beyond in making sure of everything that was necessary. In the work that I do as a member of Parliament, we're screaming for the federal government to step up all the time on mental health, but it doesn't.
I represent northern rural communities that are isolated, where we have suicide deaths from gunshots. We have people with deep mental illness who just run off into the woods, and the family can't find them. I'm having a problem here with saying that we're ready to have a really clinical, clear process for people to end their lives, but we don't have the tools in place to be ready to keep people through these times of crisis.
You're on the front line. What do you see?
