Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for her speech.
I want to begin by saying how much I appreciate the tone of our exchanges today. It is inspiring and a change from our debates.
My question is quite simple and is on the example my colleague gave in her speech about one of her friends who stopped eating and drinking for six days in order to end his life. Although the Supreme Court's criteria are relatively clear in the legislation, the fourth element is rather vague in my opinion.
We are talking about natural death becoming reasonably foreseeable. Could my colleague provide some clarification on this fourth criterion? If someone meets the first three criteria, would he not be forced, once again, to stop drinking and eating in order to meet the four criteria to get the service he is seeking?
