Mr. Speaker, I too would like to commend my colleague, with whom I served on the special committee struck by the government. The committee was made up of MPs and senators from all political parties.
I would like to know my colleague's thoughts on the text of the bill. It uses words that have raised many questions in Quebec and all across Canada regarding what is reasonably foreseeable: a reasonably foreseeable death. The Quebec legislation clearly states that care must be provided to people who are reaching their end of life.
Is the member comfortable with the term “reasonably foreseeable death”, or would he prefer a definition that is closer to the one used in Quebec, in other words, “end of life”?
