Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Greetings to our guests.
Minister, I'm pleased to see you're full of energy.
Last week, we heard from Christine Gauthier. I know you're very familiar with the case, but just a brief reminder that, in 2018, Ms. Gauthier relocated and requested that an elevator be installed in her new home. The department granted her claim in 2020. That same year, however, Ms. Gauthier was forced to file another claim because the contractor had botched the installation of her elevator. It was a bureaucratic snafu, somewhat unpleasant, but that's life, for now.
As of this year, there is still no elevator in Ms. Gauthier's home. She has now been waiting five years for an elevator to be installed. Her claim has been pending for a very long time and Ms. Gauthier has to wriggle her way down the stairs like a worm. I don't want to discuss medical assistance in dying for the moment.
I am personally affected by this, and I find it hard to understand why quicker action can't be taken.
Could you simply give me a guarantee that you will give special attention to this specific case, which I find inhumane.
