Mr. Speaker, I share the member's concern with respect to palliative care and how critically important it is that Ottawa continues to work with provinces to look at ways we can deliver a better service, particularly for some communities that have been neglected on this issue.
My question relates to the concerns of the member. We have health care professionals, families, friends and for some of the larger groups, such as the disabled, advocacy groups. I am wondering if the member might be underestimating the value they have to this debate. Once the bill gets to committee, we will hear a lot more on those issues.
