Madam Speaker, I want to start by commending the member opposite for the compassion she has for all constituents. I have seen it first-hand, being across the Salish Sea from her for many years, and I thank her for the question.
Persons with disabilities have the right to be fully included in their communities. They have the same right as all Canadians, the right to live a decent life. It is why we spent more than three years, with the help of the disability community, bringing the Canada disability benefit to fruition.
We are also working with provinces and territories to make sure that money Canadians receive from the Canada disability benefit will not be clawed back through other benefits they receive. Our goal is that people's financial security improves because of this benefit.
Financial support is being delivered to working-age, low-income persons with disabilities, and by investing in persons with disabilities, the government is working to make Canada a financially strong, inclusive and viable country.
