What our organization's director general just said is true. At the very least, the guaranteed income supplement should have been increased by $50 a month because it goes to the less fortunate.
In any case, as Mr. Prud'homme said previously, when old age security claimants have an annual income from $77,000 to $120,000—I no longer recall the exact numbers—there is a return. The amount is not the same for someone who receives $30,000 as for a person receiving more than $75,000.
So we are asking the federal government to at least increase the guaranteed income supplement by $50 a month, for the less fortunate.
