Mr. Speaker, Quebec will begin accepting advance requests for MAID starting October 30. That is just five days from now. The federal government should be helping to ensure that things go smoothly, instead of making threats. One way it can help is by amending the Criminal Code to reassure doctors.
Just today, La Presse reported that doctors are worried about whether they will be legally protected, even though Quebec has instructed prosecutors not to lay charges.
Will the federal government finally reassure doctors by amending the Criminal Code?
