Madam Speaker, I listened carefully to my colleague's speech. I imagine she has read the report of the Special Joint Committee on Medical Assistance in Dying.
The committee is made up of parliamentarians from all parties in the House as well as senators. In recommendation 13, all committee members agreed that we were not ready to make a decision on extending MAID to people whose sole medical condition is mental illness. The committee's recommendation was to continue consultations with experts and to continue the committee's work.
Does this recommendation reassure her, since she will have the opportunity to give this further thought with all the parliamentarians and senators on the Special Joint Committee on Medical Assistance in Dying?
