Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I have to provide a bit of background information here to the income support programs. They are designed to be an income replacement program. They are not a guaranteed lifestyle type of program, Mr. Speaker. The system is based on a productive choice made by the client and is a support system, of course, of last resort.

Now, doing that, Mr. Speaker, there have been certain areas that have been put into place to say that these are the incomes that would be considered earned and unearned. The impact benefit agreements are considered as unearned income. Thank you.
