Well, I'm going to keep you on your soapbox, because I agree with what you're saying.
One of the things I've been pushing for is a guaranteed livable basic income. We have income guarantees; for example, OAS is an income guarantee. I'm arguing that it's not livable, for the very reasons you're talking about. I'm pushing for a guaranteed livable basic income for all, including for seniors, in addition to current and future government programs and supports. For example, if the pharmacare bill that our party put forward passed, it would be in addition to having full coverage for medicine.
Do you think a guaranteed livable basic income would make a difference for seniors, lifting them out of poverty?
