Mr. Speaker, the member answered my question on seniors by talking about an election. This is nonsense. The real question is, why?
Why refuse to help Quebec's health system provide the best possible care to seniors by increasing transfers? Why deny seniors between the ages of 65 and 75 an old age security increase that they deserve? Why create two classes of seniors? Why refuse to commit to raising the pension by $110 a month?
Their purchasing power has been steadily declining for 45 years. That is 45 years!
Right in the middle of a pandemic, which affects mostly those 65 and over, why is the government abandoning seniors and keeping them waiting until age 75?
