Mr. Speaker, we have a rare opportunity to hear from the member for Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan, and I appreciate his question in this House. It is an important question.
I think everyone here agrees that we would all be very disappointed if we enacted a law that resulted in people having their lives terminated without their consent. I agree with the member that, as long as the mechanism in place could still be processed quickly without further suffering to the patient, it is a safeguard that should be in the system. We want to ensure that we are aligned with the Supreme Court that the patient consents to the termination of his or her life. I am happy to support whatever we need to do to ensure that is in the legislation.
