Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thanks to all the witnesses for being here with us today. My first question is for Ms. Gagnon.
In your presentation, you discussed the letter carrier's social role. I would like to know what that role represents for seniors.
I am sitting on the committee once again as a replacement. I have met representatives of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers who suggested that letter carriers could be asked to verify whether seniors are at home, whether they are able to answer the door, whether they are alive, conscious, and so on. The role of the letter carrier could be expanded in that way.
I would like to know your opinion on the subject. How could we expand the role of letter carriers relative to what they currently do?
