Thank you, Madam Chair, and I'm glad to hear the Minister acknowledges that this is a concern. I think another piece that really needs to be acknowledged here is the impacts of climate change and the extreme weather events that we're now seeing as a result of that. The increased amount of freeze/thaw cycles as well as, I imagine, more extreme weather changes quicker. So my -- I guess I just want to reemphasize that there needs to be an increase here, and not only here but in actual preventative work for the communities, in order to not only repair what's really -- or degrading but to prevent further degradation. So I do just really want to emphasize that. I think money spent here and in the communities would be well spent.
My next question is about the increase to the senior citizens and disabled persons' property tax relief. Can the Minister or the department -- I believe it's about a 230K increase. Can the Minister or department please tell me how that is actually going to translate to any sort of reliefs on the ground and in what way does a senior citizen actually benefit from that increase? Thank you.
