Should Canadians with mental illness have access to MAID?
About this episode
A special parliamentary committee has urged the government to indefinitely pause expanding medical assistance in dying (MAID) to people with mental illness as their sole underlying condition. Power & Politics speaks to two lawmakers on the committee — Conservative MP Michael Cooper, who agreed with its conclusion, and Sen. Kristopher Wells, who dissented. Plus, the Power Panel weighs in as the G7 wraps up without a Carney-Trump meeting.
