Medical Assistance in Dying committee Thank you, Madam Chair. My question is for Dr. Rajji. Dr. Rajji, I was struck by your comment that discussions on quality of care have not been held. This committee did hear from the Federation of Medical Regulatory Authorities of Canada, whose mission is to advance medical regulation on behalf of the public through collaboration, common standards and best practices.

Medical Assistance in Dying committee Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you to the witnesses. My question is for Dr. Gupta. This committee has heard concerns that anyone experiencing acute emotional distress can be eligible for MAID where a mental disorder is the sole underlying medical condition. Could you please take us through how clinicians have prepared and how clinicians will assess whether a person's request for MAID is a form of suicidal ideation?

Medical Assistance in Dying committee Dr. Freeland, has it ever occurred that a new practice in psychiatry has started and some individual psychiatrists were not ready to be involved, but that practice went ahead anyway? How did the CPA respond to such occurrences—for example, ketamine or psilocybin treatment?

Medical Assistance in Dying committee Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you to the witnesses for being here today. My questions are for Dr. Freeland. We've heard there are psychiatrists who have started training. My question is, how prepared are psychiatrists who are either involved in assessing MAID requests or acting as consultants to MAID assessors?
