Thank you for that. I appreciate your answer.
As I said the other day when you were here, I grew up knowing quite a few people who had type 1 diabetes. I've definitely seen the struggle that parents face and that adults with the condition face as they get older living in this country. I just think it's important for you at JDRF to know that we had a former leader who brought forth something similar to assist in the disability tax credit area. I support removing it entirely for people with type 1 diabetes, and I know I speak for the members of my party as well. As I mentioned earlier, there will be something coming forth from us, but just not today. It's an another aspect of the committee. I think this is long overdue for people with type .
Your colleague mentioned how sleep-deprived his wife becomes. I know people in this situation. Mothers are waking up constantly at three and four in the morning. I know a couple of them, and I know the stress of it.
Those are really all my questions for today. I just think it's important for JDRF to know that I support removing this entirely so that everyone with type 1 diabetes can qualify automatically for the disability tax credit. The members of my party agree with this. Something is coming forward. I'm really hopeful that all the members of this committee in all the parties will support it. We have the power at this committee to make decisions and make changes that can affect Canadians. I just wanted you to know that this will be coming forth.
Those are all my questions. If I have more time, I could give it over.
