Physician-Assisted Dying committee  Yes, I think so. We have the clinicians at the table as well as the patient voice. I can assure you that if she didn't feel we were doing a good enough job, she would let us know.

Physician-Assisted Dying committee  Our working group committee is a subcommittee of our medical advisory committee in the hospital. As we indicated, it's an interprofessional group, with legal as well as ethics. We have a representative with our empowerment council, which is a patient advocacy group that works within CAMH but is actually separate from it.

Physician-Assisted Dying committee  Sorry, it's one patient representative, but she is undertaking, as part of the empowerment council work, consultations external to this committee. So although it's one person who sits on the committee of, I think, seven or eight of us on the working group, the patient's voice is being brought to us through this representative.

Physician-Assisted Dying committee  That is a big ask. This is one of the areas that we talked about in our working group, the concept of vulnerability for our patient population, and as we talked about earlier, the social determinants being part of that sense of hopelessness in patients suffering from mental illness, particularly depression.

Physician-Assisted Dying committee  Yes, sorry. To sum it up, you have a very large task ahead of you, and anything we can do to assist, we are happy to do.

Physician-Assisted Dying committee  I missed the second part of the question.

Physician-Assisted Dying committee  Yes, we would be happy to do that. I apologize.

Physician-Assisted Dying committee  To answer the first part of your question, I believe all provinces and territories do have health profession appeal boards of some sort. Whether or not it's a consent and capacity board, there are health appeal boards where decisions or issues that come up in the clinical setting or health care setting would go.

Physician-Assisted Dying committee  With respect to the team that would be involved in the decision-making along with the patient to see whether or not the criteria were met, I think my friend has addressed that. Where we would consider a panel or a board, such as the Consent and Capacity Board here in Ontario, would be where decision-making was required to be appealed, where the patient who was making the request was refused by the clinical team, the advisory team that was in place.
