Thank you, Mr. Speaker. It would be a marvellous opportunity if we could find a way to have a person in every community to deal exclusively with seniors but, as the Members knows, we don't have enough of a demand in all of our communities to have staff available for such dedication. That's one of the reasons that we're looking at service centres, or government service centres in communities where programs like income security programs can be delivered. Hopefully, over time, we can expand the programming that they're able to deliver to include those services for seniors. Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
