In my riding in Lévis, it's already one in five people. It's an aging population.

Mr. Marcoux, you said that the number of seniors will double in 30 years and that they must be kept in shape. We introduced a tax credit for young people, but it was scrapped by the Liberal government.

In recommendation 9 of your brief, you talk about physical activity. Would a tax credit be a good incentive to keep young people and seniors active? You talked a lot about prevention.
