Canadian Heritage committee  Yes, if permitted. Thank you. It depends, really. In this case, it's going to take quite a few days because of the number of amendments. I suspect either Monday or Tuesday for reporting to the House if we finish tomorrow.

Canadian Heritage committee  I think you skipped BQ-27.

Canadian Heritage committee  I am here, Mr. Chair.

Canadian Heritage committee  Mr. Aitchison, the motion of the House is silent as to what to take into consideration. We have the package that's here, and the motion says, “every question necessary for the disposal of the said stage of the bill shall be put forthwith and successively without further debate or

Justice committee  Thank you, Madam Chair and Mr. Moore. CPC-1 basically adds to proposed new section 241.5, which is described in CPC-10 on page 19 of the package. As you point out, it basically criminalizes the activity of compelling health professionals to provide medical assistance in dying.

Justice committee  You're referring to a section of the act that is speaking about palliative care. However, what you have to look at is the bill. What is the scope of the bill? The scope of the bill was adopted at second reading by the House. If you look at the bill, rather than the act, you would

Justice committee  Thank you, Madam Chair and Mr. Thériault. Bill C-7 doesn't address palliative care in general. It mainly addresses medical assistance in dying. As the chair pointed out, adding the concept of palliative care, which would be debated in terms of access to the same level of quality

Justice committee  Again, to restate what I stated just a minute ago, if the amendment were to be adopted today, this amendment would be placed in the report that will be tabled in the House at a later date. At that point, a member of Parliament could raise a point of order to the Speaker of the Ho

Justice committee  Thank you, Madam Chair. Yes, you would be right, Mr. Moore. It's always the prerogative of the committee to decide what the committee wants to achieve and do, regardless of the rules. However, any amendments that are ruled inadmissible in committee would end up in the report tha

Justice committee  Thank you, Madam Chair. The bill amends section 241.2, which is a different section of the Criminal Code from section 241, and sections 241.2 and 241.31, and that's it. Those sections of the Criminal Code are different from section 241.

Justice committee  Yes, you would be right in saying that, when a section is opened, you can deal with any part of the section. Unfortunately, section 241 is not opened by the bill. There are other sections. Section 31 is a different section of the Criminal Code. It's not a subsection of section 24

Justice committee  I'm not sure what the question is exactly, Mr. Maloney.

Justice committee  Yes, I provided the advice to the chair that the amendment be ruled inadmissible. After that it's up to the chair to decide if it is really inadmissible or not, and then the ruling is issued. After that, once the ruling is issued, the proper course of action, if any, would be to

Justice committee  Mr. Moore, can you hear me?

Justice committee  Thank you. This is the legislative clerk here, Philippe Méla. Yes, you're right. There is a deadline that was set, and thank you for sending your amendments on time. That allows us to look at them procedurally and also to prepare the package of amendments and prepare the agenda
