Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
I want to particularly thank the witnesses today, starting with Ms. Baker, for emphasizing the diversity of seniors. I think we sometimes fall into the trap, as we do as a society, of considering seniors as a homogenous whole.
I'll start with a question for Ms. Baker.
Do you think that federal government programs sufficiently recognize that diversity among seniors, whether it's ethnicity, indigenous status or sexual orientation and gender identity, and is there more the federal government could do to recognize that diversity?
