Five minutes is wonderful. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My first question is for Ms. Lennox.
The Government of Canada has announced that a select group of seniors will receive $500 in a one-time payment. A greater number will receive $300 instead, but most will receive nothing. The Liberal government has suggested seniors do not need special payments for the most part, because their income has not been disrupted in the same way as the income of many other Canadians has.
Can you give us a better idea of the types of increased costs that seniors are facing as a result of this pandemic?
