Madam Speaker, in answer to my last question, the member for Sarnia—Lambton suggested that the Supreme Court in Carter had indicated that one's death needed to be reasonably foreseeable. Of course that is patently untrue. The criteria, established by our Supreme Court unanimously, are that one needs to have a sound mind, be of capacity, be suffering an irremediable illness and be suffering intolerably. I recognize that safeguards are required, but does the member agree that if those conditions are satisfied, the unanimous decision of the Supreme Court should be respected?
