Mr. Speaker, 15 days from today, more than 400 long-term disability pensioners from Nortel will be cut off their benefits. They will be destitute, quite literally out on the street. But it does not have to be that way. This Parliament is sovereign. Where the law is deficient, the government has the power to fix it.
The member for York West has legislation ready to go to save long-term disability pensions.
Will the government agree to deal with this matter before it begins its Christmas holidays later today?
