Thank you, Madam Chair.
Minister, you talked about the Canada summer jobs program, so I have to take this opportunity to let you know that constituents in my area are not happy about the budget cuts to the program. You're going to tell me that the budget is simply back to prepandemic levels. Unfortunately, as I said earlier, the pandemic may be over, but the problems that young people, businesses and organizations are facing remain. We take issue with this year's budget cuts, which mean that far too many people won't have the chance to benefit from this great program.
Now, your government's LGBTQ+ action plan paved the way for promoting the rights and equality of members of that community. Has any funding been earmarked to support senior members of the community? As you rightly pointed out, yesterday was an important day, the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia. To mark the occasion, I met with the people who run Fondation Émergence, and they underscored the importance of raising awareness about elder abuse against members of the community. They talked about their disappointment over the lack of funding for an education campaign.
What is your department going to do to support senior members of the LGBTQ+ community?
