    Vol. XXX, No. 1 January 2013 http://www.filipinostar.org Quebec to legalize assisted suicide Quebecers afflicted with a terminal illness may soon be able to seek the help of a doctor in ending their life. A panel of legal experts has recommended the provincial government allow what it is calling “medical assistance to die” in rare cases where a patient is close to death and unable to endure the physical or psychological pain — and the Quebec government says it believes it has found a way of not running afoul of Ottawa with the measures. Euthanasia and assisted suicide are illegal in Canada under the Criminal Code. However, Quebec junior health minister Veronique Hivon said Tuesday the panel determined that provinces have the legal jurisdiction to legislate in matters of health and that the future Quebec legislation would clarify how acts to end a life wouldn’t be considered suicide.

    The Perils of Public Openings: Transparency or Collusion? Webinar Materials Paul Emanuelli General Counsel and Managing Director [email protected] Marilyn Brown Senior Legal Counsel [email protected] Procurement Law Office ww.procurementoffice.ca The Procurement Office Blog Highlights for “The Perils of Public Openings” Webinar Charbonneau Highlight: Drive-By Bidding As reported by the Montreal Gazette, testimony from Charbonneau Commission revealed how public bid openings can be exploited by unscrupulous parties to facilitate bidder intimidation and stifle open competition: The list of construction contractors who claim they were relentlessly stalked, intimidated and even physically assaulted after attempting to bid on public contracts in Montreal grew at the Charbonneau Commission on Monday, with two more entrepreneurs surfacing to tell their stories. Piero Di Iorio, the former head of Excavation D.P. Ltd., stunned the ongoing public inquiry during the afternoon session with the allegation that another construction boss once went so far as to intentionally slam into Di Iorio’s truck in the Ville Marie tunnel to prevent him from getting to city hall on time to submit a bid. The driver of the other vehicle was Johnny Piazza, the witness said, brother of local construction boss Joey Piazza. “He crushed me against the wall of the tunnel,” said Di Iorio, who recently left the world of construction after more than three decades in the industry. He was able to climb out of his mangled truck’s window, he testified, then an off-duty RCMP officer drove him the rest of the way downtown, where he dropped off his bid as planned.
