Thank you, Madam Chair.
I would like to thank the witnesses for their valuable contributions.
My first question is for Dr. Smith.
Dr. Smith, it is reassuring to hear that psychiatrists are able to distinguish between the two main categories of individuals with mental health problems, namely, those who are suicidal and those seeking medical assistance in dying.
Can you tell us more about how psychiatrists go about making the distinction between a suicidal person and a person with mental health issues who is seeking medical assistance in dying?
