This is copied from one of my newsletters regarding The Canadian Medical Association (CMA) …..

CMA seeking to intervene in landmark Saskatchewan pronoun case

The CMA has applied to intervene before the Supreme Court in the ongoing pronoun case in Saskatchewan. The Saskatchewan government is using the notwithstanding clause to prevent its legislation on parental consent around student pronouns and name changes from being struck down by the courts. (CMA)

CMA President Dr. Margot Burnell spoke to media about what the case means for Canada’s health care system:

“The issue to be decided really is whether the court may still declare that legislation violates Charter rights when a provincial government has already invoked the notwithstanding clause. This decision will be precedent setting.” (Globe and Mail, by subscription)

“The notwithstanding clause should not be a tool to end public and legal debate. Legal debate on important issues requires dialogue among legislature, courts and citizens.” (Global and CTV)

What are the chronic illnesses? cardiovascular disease (i.e. stroke, heart attack high blood pressure), cancer, diabetes, COPD .
