summary	To provide for and regulate access to voluntary assisted dying (en)
text	They've been very careful and very cautious in the approach, but a lot of the people who've been very strong advocates for euthanasia are not people with a life expectancy of less than 12 months. They are people living with debilitating conditions for many, many years and they won't be eligible for voluntary assisted dying under the legislation... "The conversation about, 'I am doing this because I want to make existential choices about the end of my life', that's a much harder conversation to have as a community, but it is the one we need." (en) The outcome of this parliamentary vote will cause anguish for some members of our profession, as well as the public... interventions that have as their primary intention the ending of a person's life (en)
