FEBRUARY 4TH, QUESTION PERIOD
Ms. Irene Mathyssen (London—Fanshawe, NDP):
Mr. Speaker, there is a troubling pattern of the Conservatives ignoring due process when it comes to the care of our veterans. Today the ombudsman's report provides the latest example of unfair treatment of veterans seeking disability benefits.
Ms. Irene Mathyssen (London—Fanshawe, NDP):
Mr. Speaker, I have a petition from constituents adding their names to those of thousands of Canadians who have petitioned the House to change the proposed changes to old age security eligibility.
BRANTFORD—On November 16, Irene joined locals and members of the Brantford & District Labour Council to protest the latest changes to the Old Age Security (OAS) program, which places the financial security of seniors at risk.

Ms. Irene Mathyssen (London—Fanshawe, NDP): Mr. Speaker, I want to ask my colleague across the aisle to clarify her statements last June. She claims to be taking action to create sustainable programs. I want to know what programs she is talking about. Canadian seniors are not seeing the benefits.
Ms. Irene Mathyssen (London—Fanshawe, NDP):
Mr. Speaker, I will be splitting my time with the member for Argenteuil—Papineau—Mirabel.
