One of the things that I've worked on and am passionate about—and I think the two of us have spoken about it over the years, and I know a number of caucus colleagues have worked on this and supported this—is improving the quality of long-term care in this country. Specifically, the position that colleagues and our government took is that we should put in place national standards for long-term care.
In some cases, folks are getting wonderful care in long-term care, but there are too many cases where people aren't. COVID exposed that in a very apparent way for many Canadians.
Would national standards, if they were the right standards for long-term care implemented by the provinces, which we still have to make sure happens, not improve the quality of care that seniors receive and, therefore, not only help serve our seniors better and care for our seniors better but also support our caregivers?
