Dr. Branigan, when Maureen Taylor came before this committee yesterday, she disputed some statistics. She is from the provincial-territorial panel and she suggested that the statistics of somewhere in the neighbourhood of 15% to 30% of Canadians having access to palliative care were outdated, and, second, she also said that Canada is so vast geographically that palliative care really need not be part of the discussion surrounding assisted dying.
I wonder if you might be able to comment on those points.
