Mr. Speaker, our government recognizes the hard work of seniors who helped build our country. They deserve to retire in dignity.
It is why we restored the age of eligibility of OAS and GIS to 65 from 67, a very wrong-headed move by the previous government. We have raised the guaranteed income supplement for 900,000 low-income seniors, and invested over $200 million in senior housing.
Make no mistake, our government is there for seniors, now and tomorrow.
