I'm probably not as familiar as I should be with the Infants Act in B.C., and I may be wrong in my interpretation. I believe that mature minors under that act can make certain decisions in their best interests for their medical treatment. I also think the hospital can step in and challenge that, or the medical service can challenge that if they're refusing treatment that is for their benefit and that will continue. I may be wrong. I believe that's the same in Alberta, from what I know.
These questions about mature minors at end of life look at track one only. We never look at the intersection and what that means for track two. If we pass a law that allows mature minors to do this at whatever age—and we've heard as young as 12—we know that next it will be track two for mature minors with disabilities not at end of life, or with a mental illness. We know that's the progression that will happen. We can't discuss one without the other—
