Mr. Speaker, transforming a 60-year-old system is not an easy task. I want to start by thanking the employees at ESDC who are working so hard to make sure seniors get their benefits on time and with accuracy. In fact, that is exactly what has happened, as 98% of the cases have gone through. I will say that we are working diligently on the remaining outstanding cases where people who have signed up have not yet received their benefits.
If the member opposite or any member of Parliament has an urgent case, we can accelerate those cases in situations where people are in dire need, so I would ask them to please contact my office—
