Thank you so much, Mr. Chair.
I want to thank everyone for their presentations. I wish we had more time on this. I think it's important for us to hear all the opinions.
My first question is for Ms. Yalnizyan, if she's available, and then Mr. Kronick after that.
Armine, it's nice to see you. It's been a while. The question I have follows from where my colleague just left off.
I support our looking very seriously at some sort of a universal basic income. What I'd love for you to talk to me about is whether you see it as a way to better address income inequality moving forward. I ask because you've been around; you've been on a lot of shows, and I've been hearing that you are a supporter of it. What would you see as being the next steps to get us from where we are right now to where we need to go?
That's with the understanding that there's provincial jurisdiction involved and that we'd probably be looking to replace a number of federal and provincial programs with some sort of an annual basic income. If you could address that, that would be great.
