Mr. Speaker, my comments are in line with those of my colleague. We cannot be against virtue and against a motion to study seniors' standard of living at this time. However, why should we undertake a study? Why should we care about a study? The seniors who call my office do not want a study, they want a cheque. As we know, the pandemic was very hard on seniors. Furthermore, the government created two classes of seniors by sending cheques to those aged 75 and over. The cost of housing, groceries and medications is increasing. The last thing in the world that seniors need is a study. They need a cheque.
