Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I thank the three witnesses for their presentations.
I'd like to clarify one thing with you, Mr. Cross.
You talked about the aging of the population and of the pressure this is going to put on public finances. I think that the issue of the aging population is important and that we should be taking it into account. You mentioned that this would create pressure that could affect the viability of retirement pensions, Old Age Security and the Guaranteed Income Supplement. Is that what you said?
I know that we have heard several opinions on this matter. The Government of Canada increased the age of eligibility for OAS, which has gone from 65 to 67 years of age. There have been studies done on this, among others by Bernard Dussault, the former chief actuary of the Canada Pension Plan, who demonstrated that the Canada Pension Plan was very viable and that minor amendments needed to be made to ensure its viability given the aging of the population. Were you aware of that analysis?
