Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the hon. member for Cambridge for his dedication to veterans.
This government recognizes the service and sacrifice of Canada's veterans by making it easier for families to access the funeral and burial program for a dignified burial. We are expanding the program eligibility to more families of lower-income veterans by increasing the estate exemption from $12,000 to $35,000 and applying an annual cost-of-living adjustment.
We are committed to delivering services veterans need and this includes a dignified burial.
