Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My question is for the Minister of Municipal and Community Affairs. It is regarding my
opening statement with regard to the seniors and trying to find a way to dealing with the property tax rebate that is given to them. One of the problems that we seem to keep running into in the smaller communities is that they have to reapply for such a program every year. I would like to ask the Minister, what is his department doing to try and find ways to resolve this and streamline it so it is a simpler process in which, once you become a senior, you are automatically put into the system that they know which property you own. It would be in the computer systems through MACA or the lands title system so people would know that you are a pensioner, because you receive a pension from the Canadian Pension Plan. I would like to ask the Minister, what is his department doing to streamline this program so it is simpler for people to receive the rebate and not have to deal with reapplying every year?
