The federal government has reintroduced its proposed changes to the medical assistance in dying legislation to address a Quebec ruling against the original bill first introduced in 2016.
The bill, numbered as Bill C-7, matches that which was introduced in February, long before Parliament was prorogued, clearing progress of all legislation before the House.
Bill C-7 is in response to the Truchon ruling when a Quebec judge stated the original medically-assisted dying bill limited the eligibility criteria for medically-assisted death in that province.
