Madam Speaker, I am sure my colleague is aware that the Conservative Senate leader, when questioning the Minister of Employment, Workforce Development and Disability Inclusion, spoke to her about the case of Roger Foley.
The minister's response really spoke to my heart. As reported in the Toronto Star, she said:
...she has “grave concerns” about what happened to Foley.
“And I can tell you he's not alone.”
She said she “regularly” hears from people who are “appalled” to discover a family member with a disability has been offered what she called “unprovoked MAID.”
She then said:
“I think that has to stop ... It really speaks to the underlying systemic discrimination that we can’t not talk about anymore in this country.”
I wonder what the member's thoughts are on this statement from the individual who serves as the disability inclusion minister for our government.
