Mr. Speaker, the hon. member mentioned the word “fact”, so let us look at some facts. The fact is that when the Conservative Party was in power, its plan for seniors was to raise the age of retirement to 67. The fact is that the first thing we did on this side was to reverse that back to 65. The fact is that the party opposite has opposed every single measure our government has put forward to support seniors, including the increase to the guaranteed income supplement, including the 10% increase to the old age security, and including our enhancements to the CPP. We will not take any lessons from the party opposite on seniors. We are going to continue to deliver for them.
