Mr. Speaker, I think the member for Nanaimo—Ladysmith really illustrates how this bill attempts to ensure that people have choice, autonomy and dignity at the ends of their lives, while also ensuring people must know of the supports that are available and have a reasonable expectation they will be advised of all of their options so they truly do have a choice. The work with the disability advisory group that the Minister of Disability Inclusion and I have had the privilege to do has highlighted for us that there is not a one-size-fits-all answer for the disability community, but that working together with them, we can enhance supports that will be meaningful and give people that true choice.
