Mr. Speaker, I know there are other members who are waiting to give speeches, but I would like to ask the member one brief question.
Is the member aware that the old age security and GIS programs are in fact not being cancelled? Is the member aware that if a person was 60 years of age or older as of December 31, 1995 they would continue to receive the old age security and the GIS, or that they would have the option to transfer to the senior's benefit if in fact that was in their best interest?
I want to know if the member is aware that those programs are not being cancelled.
