Mr. Speaker, I am proud to be a seconder of the bill that the member for Trinity—Spadina has brought forward.
I want to point out that Canada is the only country in the OECD without a national transit policy.
There is one segment of society that I am particularly concerned about that I do not think the member mentioned in her speech, and that is seniors. We have a growing demographic of seniors for whom independence means being able to get around on their own, both safely and securely. For a number of safety reasons, we should not be driving in our senior years.
Would the member like to comment on that aspect of seniors and mass transit?
