Three groups presented their memoirs on this third day of consultations on Bill 52. We have received a promise of a free, non-partisan\u00a0vote from the Liberal party. We have heard that the demand for \"medical aid in dying\" will be weak.\u00a0We have also heard that the rules for the anticipated procedures are too strict. And once again, the lack of\u00a0clarity within\u00a0the bill has been emphasized.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Mrs.\u00a0St\u00e9phanie Vall\u00e9e, MNA for Gatineau, promised that the\u00a0Liberal Party will authorise a free, non-partisan\u00a0vote. Great! Let's hope that the other parties do the same. With a bill\u00a0that is so important for the future of\u00a0Quebec, it is vital that the MNAs be able to vote according to their consciences.<\/p>\n
According to Mrs. V\u00e9ronique Hivon, the minister for Social Services and Youth Protection,there will be few requests for medical aid in dying. Why then must we adopt such a dangerous law when we're aware of the derivatives that have occured in countries (such as Belgium) who already permit euthanasia?<\/p>\n
According to Dr. Annie L\u00e9ger\u00a0of the ACMDP, the patient's aptitude\u00a0is extremely difficult to evaluate. She\u00a0finds unfortunate\u00a0that the planned rules for Bill 52, concerning anticipated procedures, are too strict and formal. According to her, patients should be able to let their wishes be known more easily. What a stunning point of view when we consider the government\u00a0line\u00a0regarding the strict guidelines is that\u00a0they are\u00a0there to reassure the Quebec public! What do we want? Strict guidelines or an easy access to death?<\/p>\n
Today, once again, all the groups have emphasized the lack of clarity in the definition of the terms contained in the bill from which could follow enormous problems.<\/p>\n
