Madam Speaker, I believe the stories of folks who are struggling to such a point that they are even considering this. The fact that we are looking at making this an available option instead of treatment, instead of getting them the services they need, is so disappointing.
To the second part of your question, this started as medical assistance in dying. A Supreme Court decision forced Parliament to make a decision to set up a framework. We seem to have evolved to medical assistance in suicide. From my personal perspective, I want to fight for those who are facing real challenges and give them the hope they need so they can continue to live and improve their quality of life, not end it.
