: However, Canada foremost constitutional authority has predicted it would be struck down by the courts as unconstitutional, according to Metro News. Peter Hogg said Bill C-14 is inconsistent with last year landmark Carter decision, which struck down the ban on assisted dying as a violation of the charter right to life, liberty and security of the person. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says the medically assisted dying bill is an appropriate balance between defending the rights and freedoms of Canadians while protecting the most vulnerable. The court suspended its ruling for a year — and later extended the deadline by four months — to give the federal government time to respond with a new law. The Draft Lisa Raitt campaign calls itself a coalition of students, business people and public servants who want to show Raitt she has broad public support. That deadline arrived Monday, with C-14 still under examination by independent-minded senators.__ A grassroots effort is underway to persuade longtime Conservative MP Lisa Raitt to run for the Tory leadership.
