Thank you so much to my friend and colleague, Mr. Alghabra.
Mr. Perrault, the greatest tragedy of this pandemic is the lives lost in long-term care homes. Should an election be called, I want to ensure the health and safety of those living in long-term care.
We have long-term care outbreaks in multiple provinces. I can talk about my own province. We had 100 long-term care homes in outbreak, with over 700 resident cases and 500 staff cases on November 13.
We've heard many recommendations, such as no polling stations in long-term care, no election workers in long-term care and not taking residents out of the home to vote. I want to know if you could table with the committee what you are looking at in terms of protections in long-term care and ensuring people's right to vote. Who are you listening to when it comes to protecting their public health?
