Thank you, Mr. Van Bynen.
My name is Mike Morrice. I'm the member of Parliament for Kitchener Centre.
Thanks to each of the organizations here today for your really important advocacy.
Rabia shared earlier her comments about people with disabilities wanting to work. I want to briefly share some comments from a constituent of mine who emailed me over the weekend. These were his words: “We should not be doomed to poverty because a rich person fears we won't work if we are aided.” I hope members of this committee will keep that in mind.
In terms of the work this committee will get to do, there's a chance to put forward amendments. I want to ask this of the CNIB folks in particular. One of the amendments you suggested was about requiring regulations to come into force within a particular amount of time. Could you share more about what you envision with that amendment?
