From the testimony you provided, Laura, it's very clear to me that there needs to be an advocate in place to make sure there is somebody who can fight for seniors who are not being treated with dignity and respect or being provided with the resources they need. Thank you so much for that.
My next question is for you, Miranda.
We know that across sectors, unionized workplaces provide better conditions for workers. For example, in long-term care in Manitoba, and certainly in my riding of Winnipeg Centre, many of the care workers come from racialized communities. Many are from the Filipino community. They provide front-line services and have put their lives on the line, and in fact have lost their lives, caring for others.
Can you speak about how increased unionization for support workers will enable better conditions for them and for seniors in long-term care?
