Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I just have to come back to this vital, proactive tool to protect the well-being and dignity of seniors, going forward. That is a national seniors strategy.

I would ask through the chair to the minister, when can Canadians see a national seniors strategy in the budget, and does the minister agree that there is a need for it with all the learnings that have come from COVID-19?
