Mr. Speaker, in the compressed timeline I have to respond, I have spoken to reasonable foreseeability in the chamber.
Reasonable foreseeablity is something that has been used quite regularly in the Criminal Code. We placed it in the legislation to inject what we feel is a necessary flexibility to provide medical practitioners with the ability, based on their direct relationship with their patient, to determine when that patient would be eligible for medical assistance in dying. In other words, they would determine when their patient's death has become reasonably foreseeable.
