We are looking for a regulator so that people who have trouble with income trusts have an avenue to go through to be protected. Right now, I understand there's no regulator. If you lose all your money, you don't have money to go to a lawyer to prove that your broker wasn't being up front or honest with you. I understand that with some of the income trusts, people are getting back less than what they put in. Yet they need this money to live.
You see that a lot of the corporations are doing these income trusts. Bell Canada is one...and was it Telus here a week or two ago? Who's going to be next? General Motors? If the government loses their tax base from their corporations, then our health care, which is a big thing for seniors, is going to be in trouble.
Those are a couple of things, Dave, that would affect us. There are stories out there of people losing their money, and that a lot of companies are doing income trusts.
We're looking for a regulator so that you have an avenue to protect yourself if you do end up being defrauded, or whatever you want to call it. We also want to protect the health care system. At our convention, 15% of the resolutions were on health care, because of the problems. We need it. A lot of these seniors are not rich people, they're just hard workers. We're living longer than we ever did before. Sometimes they're living too long and they run out of their money. So they need the help.
