Well, I hate to be biased, but the trouble is, given women's low income across the board in Canada--the average low income for women--it would be important to see that maybe there could be special recognition for the difficulties women face at the age of 60, though, on the other hand, there's growing unemployment for men, and they too are going to be paying a penalty.
So maybe, given the current economic times, what we should do--and this could change later--is perhaps look at that penalty not being applied for a period of time, and then you could go back and look at the implications.
