Question 230-17(5): Elimination Of Poverty Traps In The Income Security System
Oral Questions

March 5th, 2014

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I’d like to follow up on my Member’s statement with questions for the Minister of the social envelope today, Minister Abernethy. The Minister has been working hard on an Anti-Poverty Strategy and more recently an Anti-Poverty Action Plan. The strategy and plan are based around five pillars.

Could the Minister explain which pillar addresses the poverty traps that are built into our income

security programs that I’ve been talking about for the last three days? Mahsi.
