Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you to our witnesses for being here tonight.
My question is for Dr. Gupta.
As you know, Dr. Gupta, some individuals can currently access MAID when their underlying condition is a neurocognitive disorder, such as dementia or Parkinson's disease, in certain circumstances. Would shifting from the term “mental illness” to the term “mental disorder”, as proposed in Bill C-218, risk inadvertently excluding those individuals from access to MAID?
