Thank you very much, Chairs.
Thank you, witnesses, for your testimony.
I'd like to start with you, Dr. Maher. Just to put a fine point on this, the MAID regime we have in Canada did not exist as a health care policy. It is an exemption to murder in the Criminal Code. When you describe mental health as already qualifying people for MAID in the eyes of some assessors and practitioners, you're describing criminal misconduct, are you not?
