Madam Speaker, the Liberal government has sent a clear message to the provinces that euthanasia access is a priority over palliative care, as we can see from the fact that the Liberals are letting a Quebec lower court judge steer the way forward for the rest of Canada. We can also see, on the opposite side of the country, that the Fraser Health Authority in British Columbia leads the charge by revoking funding for hospice care beds and is confiscating private charitable donations for the implementation of MAID access.
Why is the government not fighting to ensure quality palliative care access before euthanasia?
