Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to reiterate that the retirement age is 65, not 67. It was fortunately returned to 65.
But that's not the issue. We're talking about eligibility for the OAS and the fact that the government chose to discriminate on the basis of seniors' age. The aim of our bill is to restore equity.
We discussed predictability and foresight, and we are familiar with this demographic group. We are asking that equity be restored so that people from 65 to 74 receive the same amount of OAS.
Mr. Poulin, you supported this portion of the bill. Do you think restoring equity would change things?
