We didn't put that back in this year, but the previous year we recommended 73. You met us halfway at 71. The reception was very appreciated by the industry, certainly.
We would continue, obviously, to request a further delay to 73. The real reason for that is because, as you know, Canadians are living longer. They are working longer and they need the money to last longer. The opposition from a lot of our constituents and investors was that they were forced to take the money out and pay tax on it before they actually had to spend the money. We found that by moving the age from 69 to 71, they were able to delay the withdrawals.
Someone who is 71 could easily live another 15 years or so. Therefore, instead of forcing them to take the money out and pay tax prematurely, before they spend it, we would again be in favour of increasing that even further. I think 71 is only restoring us to where we were a decade ago, and 73, of course, would be even more helpful.
