Mr. Speaker, seniors in Canada who receive the guaranteed income supplement are some of the poorest in this country. Many work to subsidize their meagre income. Like every other working Canadian, they asked for help during the pandemic. Now they are being punished. Seniors like David, who is 71 years old, had $1,000 cut off their income. He cannot afford his food. He cannot afford his medication.
How can the Minister of Seniors sleep at night knowing that these seniors are going hungry and are not getting their medication every day here?
