Mr. Speaker, I have two more petitions on a similar subject from constituents.
The petitioners draw to the attention of the House that Canada's seniors have contributed a great deal to this country's political
development, economic growth and sustained prosperity within the 20th century. These citizens have protected Canada's tradition of democracy and individual freedom through two wars and through a variety of international peacekeeping endeavours.
Therefore, the petitioners request that Parliament recognize these accomplishments and sacrifices by not seeking to reform Canada's national medicare or pension programs in any way that would reduce benefits for senior citizens living on limited or fixed incomes.
