Mr. Speaker, the reason the government set up, along with the provinces, the commission which is currently going across the country to examine the CPP is precisely to deal with the question of the survival of the CPP. How will the CPP be maintained? The government stands four square behind it, as in fact do the provinces.
At the same time, we are dealing with very real problems which have resulted from the inattention paid to them over the course of the last decade. It may well be that premiums will have to rise. It may well be that there will be changes in the benefits.
The government has said very clearly that it will not accept the recommendations of the Reform Party which would eventually lead to the evisceration of the Canada pension plan.
