As you know, we see a great deal of misinformation suggesting that a suicidal person could access medical assistance in dying. However, the expert report states that, if a person is suicidal, they can't access medical assistance in dying because they're in a state of crisis. They need to be in a stable condition. So, regarding the argument that we would be encouraging suicidal people to request medical assistance in dying, I would say that the opposite is actually true. Sometimes, people who have been suffering for many years and who have no other solution choose to end their lives by suicide, or by refusing treatment, continuing to take their medication or seeking help, knowing full well that this will ultimately lead to psychiatric palliative care.
Can you give us some examples of people who, under the current criteria, would be eligible for medical assistance in dying on the basis of a mental illness?
