Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for her question.
The member is right. We do not want the federal government to do everything listed in our charter.
We want the federal government to live up to its commitments with respect to transfers to provinces.
That is true. It is important. The problem is reduced federal funding for health, housing and so on. This is the first problem we must address. After that, there are many possibilities for cooperation between different levels of government to try to resolve the issues facing the elderly.
