Thank you.
Ms. Shamian, I very much enjoyed your presentation. I wish we had more time, but we don't, so let me get right to it.
The national caregiver strategy recommendation is absolutely essential, simply for the reasons you have articulated. It is cross-jurisdictional, and if we don't have everyone, we'll make no progress.
I'm going to skip to the CPP. We have in there what used to be called a child rearing drop-out provision, which I think is more sensitively described now as the child rearing provision form. The interesting thing is that it is a very good parallel for what you require. The importance is not only that they lose some credit or value for the earned pension benefits, but they lose years of opportunity to increase them from where they are. So I agree there.
I want to ask you to speak a little more about family caregivers. Probably the vast majority of families in Canada are facing those situations now, with our aging society. Tell me more about your views on financial assistance through tax credits or other bases for family caregivers.
