Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am aware how costly it will be to the government. I had taken that into consideration. However, in considering the benefit for them being lost by the elders, the federal benefits that they are due. The young people are also having difficulty getting their birth certificates, which they have to have in order to get a social insurance number. Again, these young people are not able to find jobs that they should be able to apply for. I would like to find out how soon it will be before the Minister can look at this? Thank you.
