"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"6419833\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, I appreciate the member's thoughtful comments. I would have loved to hear what the Supreme Court would have said about the Truchon decision. That would have given me more confidence in that decision, but ultimately, removing the term \u201creasonably foreseeable\u201d gives me some fear. I was very frank about that in my speech.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6419834\" data-originallang=\"en\"> I wonder very much whether, in my lifetime, we are going to see this expanded to children who do not have reasonably foreseeable deaths, or to those suffering from mental illness. Concerning mental illness, I know the government has been very clear that this legislation excludes it, but at the rapid pace we are expanding it I am not convinced that we are not going to see this extend to mental illness within my lifetime. I find that to be the most terrifying aspect of this new legislation.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"6419833\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, je remercie le d\u00e9put\u00e9 de ses observations r\u00e9fl\u00e9chies. J\u2019aurais aim\u00e9 entendre ce que la Cour supr\u00eame aurait eu \u00e0 dire au sujet de l\u2019arr\u00eat Truchon. Cela m\u2019aurait rendue plus confiante \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9gard de cette d\u00e9cision, mais au bout du compte la suppression de l\u2019expression \u00ab raisonnablement pr\u00e9visible \u00bb m\u2019inqui\u00e8te. Je l\u2019ai dit franchement dans mon intervention.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6419834\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je me demande vraiment si, de mon vivant, je verrai cette disposition s\u2019appliquer aux enfants dont la mort n\u2019est pas raisonnablement pr\u00e9visible ou \u00e0 ceux qui ont un probl\u00e8me de sant\u00e9 mentale. En ce qui concerne la maladie mentale, je sais que le gouvernement a dit tr\u00e8s clairement que ce projet de loi l\u2019exclut, mais \u00e0 la vitesse \u00e0 laquelle nous l\u2019\u00e9largissons, je ne suis pas convaincue que je ne verrai pas cela s\u2019appliquer \u00e0 la maladie mentale au cours de ma vie. Je trouve que c\u2019est l\u2019aspect le plus terrifiant de ce nouveau projet de loi.</p>"
