Mr. Speaker, on the contrary, the Government of Canada is committed to ensuring that all who are qualified receive the Canada pension benefits to which they are eligible.
The facts are these. Every single year we mail old age security and Canada pension plan applications to people who are turning 64 so they can apply for benefits. The fact is that every year we send information on our pension programs with CPP and OAS T4 statements to 4.5 million Canadians.
Every year we distribute some 250,000 brochures and fact sheets across Canada at various seniors events and through our human resources centres.
I would like to thank all the members of Parliament who, on a regular basis, speak with their constituents to provide them with important information.
