Thank you.
Good morning, mesdames.
I listened carefully to the testimony of each of you, who come from elsewhere on this big planet. I heard about all the efforts made by each of the organizations to make submissions to each of your governments to put in place policies to improve the status and economic security of women.
Based on your experience, could you tell me which policy is the most effective? What should the government focus on to improve women's economic security, in particular? Should we talk about tax policy or income tax cuts? Should we focus more on all matters pertaining to income support, such as employment insurance benefits and pension income? Should we guarantee a minimum? When I say a minimum, I'm thinking of our Guaranteed Income Supplement and the minimum wage, which should be indexed to the cost of living to guarantee a minimum level for the poorest people in our societies.
Can you give me an answer based on your experience?
