The House of Commons begins its consideration of amendments made by the Senate to Bill C-14, the government’s assisted-dying legislation. The government has indicated that it will accept certain amendments but reject the Senate’s key proposal to broaden the eligibility criteria for medically assisted death. Participants in the debate include Justice Minister Jody Wilson-Raybould, Andrew Scheer (the House leader of the Official Opposition), Garnett Genuis (the Conservative human rights critic), Linda Duncan (the NDP MP for Edmonton Strathcona, Alta.), and Murray Rankin (the NDP justice critic).
