He is also making generalizations to suggest that we are headed down a slippery slope.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8660802\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Could my colleague tell all of our colleagues that access to care is not a problem considering that a diagnosis is required? If a person has a diagnosis, it means they are already receiving care.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8660803\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Could he also tell us about the solemn moment when the doctor and medical team sit down with the patient who, in front of two witnesses, specifies the criteria establishing his or her tolerance limit?</p>",

En outre, il essaie de faire des g\u00e9n\u00e9ralisations amenant \u00e0 penser qu'on s'en va vers la pente glissante.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8660802\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Est-ce que mon coll\u00e8gue pourrait exprimer \u00e0 l'ensemble de nos coll\u00e8gues qu'il n'y a pas de probl\u00e8me d'accessibilit\u00e9 aux soins \u00e9tant donn\u00e9 qu'il faut avoir un diagnostic?
