Mr. Speaker, medical assistance in dying is a deeply personal and complex choice. I have great respect for the crucial work Quebec has done on advance requests. Canada has only one Criminal Code, and for good reason. Canadians deserve consistent standards and clarity on what is criminal. There is no quick fix to safely allow an exception for Quebec on this issue. The conversation does not end here. We are committed to working with Quebec to consider next steps.
