Thank you so much for that.
The GIS reference in division 24 offers a technical amendment that will firm up changes in the previous legislation.
The government is ensuring that accessing pandemic benefits does not negatively impact recipients of GIS and the calculation of the GIS. We certainly saw that in my riding with many seniors. This change had a huge impact on the lives of seniors in my riding of Winnipeg Centre, the third poorest riding in the country.
Another issue that my office is being contacted about is the Canada child benefit, which is impacted in the same way the GIS is by the interaction of pandemic benefits in the calculation. I'm wondering if any of the officials on the call could comment if they've been asked by government to draft fixes to the similar issue with the Canada child benefit that will have a huge impact on the lives of low-income families.
