Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I should qualify my last statement by saying my wife has been on maternity leave for several months and isn't currently working.

Mr. Speaker, I know that a lot of these organizations haven't had any increases in their core funding for several years. They haven't kept up with the rate of inflation. Mr. Speaker, it's a very serious matter because those homes have a hard time getting people to work there because of the remuneration rates. My question to the Minister, Mr. Speaker: Can he give a commitment to this House that he will look at this personally and see if there's something that we can do for these very valuable people who are working at the front lines in our communities? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
