Thank you very much for your question.
We think that the guaranteed income supplement should be increased by at least $50 a month. As we often say, people aged 65 to 74 would also have liked to benefit from the 10% increase announced for people aged 75 and over.
Basically, right now, we have to ask ourselves some questions. How is it that people who live solely on the guaranteed income supplement and old age security have incomes below the poverty line set by the federal government itself? That's highly questionable.
We're just saying that these benefits need to be increased. We urge the federal government to keep its promise to increase them by $500 per year for a single person and $750 for a couple. They should have already kept their word.
