CAMH is not saying that mental illness cannot be or should be excluded from being a criterion for MAID for mental illness. What we're saying clearly is that there's work that needs to be done to determine what those criteria are that define one condition as irremediable versus remediable. These criteria need to be established based on consensus because there is no clear, objective evidence at the individual level to determine whether individual X has an irremediable illness. That work has not been done yet.
