Thank you very much, Ms. Pastine.
My next question is for Mr. Cameron.
Mr. Cameron, we are familiar with the background of the Carter decision and know that the lead plaintiff travelled abroad to seek assistance to die, knowing that the legal system would not respond to her request before she died.
You said that, in your opinion, in order to maximize safeguards for the most vulnerable individuals, the justice system—in other words, a superior court—or judges would have to have the power to determine whether someone has the ability to ask for assisted suicide.
The provinces have different superior courts whose judges do not often or always hand down the same decisions on the same issue. That is why courts of appeal exist. By the same token, provincial courts of appeal do not always render similar rulings in identical contexts, and that is why we have a Supreme Court.
How can you reconcile your restrictive stance with the spirit of the Carter decision given the context of that ruling?
