I would absolutely echo the comments by Mr. Conrad and Mr. Meincke. I would also ask for a clear understanding from the department as to how this will be avoided completely in future.
I know as well that a report was published by an expert panel on MAID and mental illness. I'm looking at the report in front of me on the Canada.ca website. It was published on May 13 of this year and it features a number of recommendations that they feel the government should adopt with regard to medical assistance in dying for mental health reasons. I'd like to know that the Department of Veterans Affairs has reviewed this report and that they are working to incorporate those recommendations.
