Thank you for that information. Okay, senior home heating subsidy, okay, 2024-2025 was $2.7 million, and it went down for this current fiscal year to $2.1 million. And I -- okay, I just want to make sure I'm on the -- okay, on the right line here.
I know this is a very important program, especially for our elders living in small communities because I think you go by tier one, tier two, tier three. Okay, there are some -- some of my -- well, a couple of my communities are on tier three, and they have said that the amount that's allocated, it's not enough to make ends meet. It's not enough for them to heat their house. So if my constituents are saying that, that lives in the tundra, so what about the other communities that are living further with the high price of fuel? You know, like, I mean -- so it must be -- this must have a great impact on them as well, especially the elders who, you know, needs these subsidies. Why did the department -- I just want to ask the department why a decrease in that -- with that program when it's greatly needed to accommodate our senior citizens who -- there's quite a few of them, and we keep talking about elders aging in home or seniors aging in home with dignity, and this is not enough, you know, to help our seniors. And there are lots I know that -- that do not want to go to regional centres because a lot of them are still independent, they can do things, but they don't want to go to a senior home because they're still capable, they can still -- they're mobile. Because for us -- for a lot of them, that's a last stop and that's -- they don't want to go there, not now, not yet. So why there is a big decrease in budget for that? Thank you.
