Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Good afternoon, everyone. My mother is 98 years old, and I hope I'll live at home as long as she has, and she's still living at home. I wonder what Health Canada is doing for her. It's my sister who takes care of her. My mother is in perfect health, and she goes out every Sunday and even two or three times a week. What does Health Canada do to help people keep seniors at home? The help we've had so far comes from the CLSC nurse, who comes and washes her once or twice a week. The rest of the time, she goes out with us every week. Last Sunday, I went and had lunch with her. She's in great shape.
We would like her to die at home. My father died at home 25 years ago. We were 11 children at the time. Only 10 are left now, and we take of our mother.
What does Health Canada do to help people stay at home with their children?
