Mr. Speaker, I want to ask the Minister, in terms of being a responsible Minister and being responsible for the seniors, there doesn’t seem to be a very strong voice for the seniors, coordinating the different departments to help the seniors. As, again, a case in point, this senior, his house was frozen up. It’s been like that since even last Friday. It doesn’t send a good message that we’re taking care of our seniors. How does it, within the government, coordinate these types of issues to get looked at as a priority for our seniors? It doesn’t seem like it’s working, no matter what type of system we have. I want to ask the Minister if she is interested or willing to look at different mechanisms, that this senior doesn’t have to sit for two months while his house is frozen up and run through all the bureaucracy and yet, as of last Friday, still no one has come over to fix their place.
