Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I would like to move:
That, pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), the committee undertake a study on the social and economic impacts and overall well-being of Canadian grandparents who become guardians of their grandchildren; that the study comprise no fewer than four meetings; that the committee report its findings, with recommendations, to the House; and that, pursuant to Standing Order 109, the committee request that the Government provide a comprehensive response.
I think—especially in my past line of work—that we're seeing more and more children who are being taken care of by grandparents. I think it is imperative for us to study to see why that is, if there are supports, or what can be done differently to help alleviate that stress.
